    Not really, there are time limits where they can’t sue you anymore, and credit agencies will stop reporting the original debt holder, but you’re on the hook for life, usually even if you pay it off if it passes more than one collector.

        Sure, as long as you no longer need credit that works out. Also since we’re talking the US, that’s as long as you don’t need a job, to rent, to drive, or do anything else that requires a credit check.

          But if I can’t get a job due to debt how do they expect me to pay it? What a dumb system…
