Young Swedes are falling into financial troubles due to simple food orders via apps like Foodora and unexpected costs when moving out from home. A debt advisor warns of a society where consumption happens before payment. Even stable families are affected as the economy worsens.
In Sweden, debts among young people are rising due to everyday choices like ordering food home via platforms such as Foodora. Many do not realize the real costs when moving out from home, leading to a debt trap. Mohammed Yusuf, a debt advisor in Borlänge, points to a society that encourages consuming first and paying later.
"The consume first and pay later society has gone too far. Even families that previously had a stable economy are drawn into the credit trap when times get worse," says Yusuf.
This trend affects not just individuals but spreads to entire households as economic times toughen. The article highlights how simple purchase decisions can escalate into bigger problems, especially for those lacking experience in adult budgeting.
