Basically it's spending a whole lot more than you can afford to. I know when we had our last sizable earthquake, the interior structure of all the chimneys cracked and had to be replaced which cost a fortune but people would not stop using the fireplaces even though they were asked not to so we had to do the repair work and put that on credit. Then the back stairs started falling apart and in having the redone, dry rot was found in the wall they connected to so had to have that all ripped out and restored which cost another fortune. Roof also had to be replaced because it leaked. This was all within less than 3 years. We weren't in debt to $40,000 but it was a lot so we just cut way back on everything non-essential--stopped magazine subscriptions, no cable, minimum phone usage, no eating out, no vacations, new clothes only when the old ones wore out so badly they would have been embarrassing, etc. And we dumped as much money as possible to paying off the debt. I was so relieved when we were out of debt and we've not allowed ourselves to get in debt again--cutting back really showed us what we actually really needed and how much money we wasted on stupid stuff.

But I know someone who's in debt up to $100,000. Got some government grant to study something but went and spent the whole grant on pleasure traveling, came home to find the govt had rescinded the grant and wanted their money back but it was gone. She also had absolutely no self control over what she purchases so even though she's in huge debt and is paying this huge interest, she goes on vacation about 4 times a year, bought a $400 camera, gives homeless folks with any sob story hundreds of dollars, etc. I don't even know how she sleeps knowing she is so badly in debt but she lives like some fairy godmother will come along and make everything right.

Go to college and take out loans. Make sure your parents are real poor so they can't help you out too much. THIS way, you can apply for a bunch of credit cards and get approved, because people that go to college pay their bills. Go out EVERY weekend, and drink, A LOT. In fact, buy other people drinks too! because you work at The Gap 10 hours a week, and you know you can make your minimum payments each month. Also, if you need to, put some of your tuition on one of those cards. This is a very helpful tip. When you graduate college, buy a new car RIGHT AWAY. Even if you have four credit cards and are going to be a teacher and make a whopping 28 grand a year. So, try that to start. That may be OVER 40 grand, but hey, I am an overachiever.

1. Assuming you have credit, and a job...go into a car dealership, take out a loan and buy a car.
2. Go into every department store you can and sign up for their credit cards. Max out the temporary card they give you.
3. Go into the home improvement stores. Do the same thing you did for the department store credit cards.
(Most stores will have credit cards you can apply for and get.)
If you have no credit, this will be a lot harder. The first thing you would do then is get someone to co-sign with you for the car.

I found that store credit cards tend to run around $250.00 to start out with. If you go purely the store route, you're going to have to open a lot of accounts. Each time you open an account, it's going to flag on your credit report. Too many card applications send up a red flag. At some point it will make you look like you have bad credit.

Another way, albiet very STUPID way is to hit up a loan shark for $40K. Or, if you own your own home, take out an equity loan (you can probably also get that on your vehicle if you own that outright, but it won't be for $40K).

Not sure why you want to do something this insane, but good luck?!

Shop.

Usually that's a credit card issue, and it's just a matter of people not understanding how credit cards work, the element of the interest rate being the main problem. Some people are far too much spend mode and not at all in save and pay mode.

Buy a car that is too expensive, or college loans.

well debt is debt -

so the average house costs more than that. um, student loans. um, a new BMW. Or over using your credit cards.

Go to college. Buy a house, buy a car. Go to Vegas. Share movies on Kazaa and fight it in court. Get in a car wreck while you don't have insurance. Be hospitalized for about a month. Buy me this purse

the quickest ways (depending on your current credit line) is to max out a good size credit card and never pay it, or buy a car via credit and disregard those payments.

All of these ideas are great. And I'm trying REALLY hard to not ask why. Seems to me, the real question is how to get out of that debt.

However, for more creative ways to spend money, watch the film Brewster's Millions, staring Richard Pryor and John Candy. The premise: A minor league baseball player (Pryor) inherits $30 million from a rich relative, only he has to spend EVERY PENNY in 30 days. If he does, he will get the full amount of this relative's fortune: $300 million. OH, and he has to do it all without telling anyone why. He was quite creative in spending it. Taking just a few of these ideas would help you meet and exceed your $40,000 mark. :)

easy just be born in the united states of america , google national debt its the debt owed to the criminal Federal reserve central bank which is not Federal in any aspect they are merly a privatly owned bank controlled by a few banker who control and make all money to distrubute to the government but guess what they money is only lowned with intrest so the government borrows a billion $ but owes the bank a billion and a half dollars when only a billion was created in the first place ultimatly putting the government and its citezins in debt currently america owes this bank aprox $9,610,399,738,513.19 in accumilated debt , thats where the lovly income tax comes into play it robs 25% of your earnings to pay this debt which infact is impossible and will never be paid becuase more debt will just be made currently each american citizen owes $31,552.46 in debt just for living, and this number will only increase intime to where the debt will be higher then ur income indefinatly and ultimatly legally enslaving the whole USA , this Tax and coorperation doesnt even need to exsist , the FED is the greatest fraud robbery in american history if i think i am lying do a bit of research the FED ownes us
