When someone says they are using a hammer, they are talking about a tool with a lot of power. That is how I picture debt when I hear of it.
The money that we borrow from banks and credit cards to pay for something are like nails that hammer (debt) drive into our financial system to cover our payments, but the opposite face’s task is to take back that money plus interests which causes deep holes in our economy.
Because of the holes that debt caused in each individual’s economy, the entire world’s economy got affected and lead to a financial crisis.
