Interesting predatory lending advertisement

If you leave a comment, Jim will visit your blog and leave a comment. I like to walk malls, occasionally going to a mall to get my daily walk in if the weather is bad, which isn't very often here in San Diego, of course.

When I'm walking I like to read the advertisements, occasionally finding something interesting, a good meal deal, or bargain sales.

At Plaza Bonita in National City, one advertisement in the food court caught my attention to the other day.

Not only was the subject matter of interest to my career as a Realtor, but the advertisement itself was quite creative:

Hi Jim - That's a very creative way of getting out an important message. I'm sure it has attracted a lot of attention and hopefully is doing some good.

Hi Jim: Interesting ad campaign. It might be a little late since the sub prime industry has evaporated.

Hey, Jon and Matt - I don't know how long the ad has been up, so I can't attest to whether or not it has done any good, is still doing good, or might do some goo.

JUN

This is a good example of getting your message out in an effective way, Thanks for sharing

Jim, I must say it is a very unique ad!! Was that your reflection in the window or someone on the other side?

JUN

That is a good ad, it really caught your attention and if you were in the market, you certainly would be writing these questions down.
