Jun 23 2009Only In Latvia: Secure A Loan With You Soul

Actually, I heard it works in hell too. But for those of you that like it a little cooler, a Latvian firm is offering loans of 50 to 500 Latvian lats ($100 to $1,000) secured only by your immortal soul.
Riga-based firm, named Kontora, does not require credit history record or proof of employment.
According to the agreement, the only security required of the borrower is their immortal soul, which they are asked to confirm as their previously unmortgaged property.
Damn you, previously unmortgaged property clause! You see, I was in Georgia sawin' on a fiddle and playin' it hot. I won a bike. With a red-hot poker for a seat. Damn you, devil!
Latvian firm accepts souls as guarantee for credits [mosnews]
Thanks to Spikey DaPikey, who lost his soul in a game of beer pong. Jesus, Spikey -- I like your style.

@1
I think it depends on how said vows were worded. There are most often loopholes to everything.
Was ones soul promised to your significant other at one point or another?

14. FDSY - June 23, 2009 10:45 AM
I lost everything in the Soulmarket. Now I steal them.
Ironically I keep them in a secure account in Seoul South Korea. Hmmmmmm.
15. Pew³ - June 23, 2009 10:46 AM
I bought into some souls on the black market. Now that the economy is crashing I'm totally upside down on a few souls. I'm just trying to maintain the upkeep.
Hey people it's a buyers market right now. I'd just like to break even. Cheap souls for sale!!
16. Jaded Icon - June 23, 2009 10:49 AM
So what's the going rate? I might be interested in selling a few that I have collected over the years.
17. hola - June 23, 2009 10:53 AM

19. STOMPY - June 23, 2009 11:07 AM
Thats nothing, one time I sold my sole for some bacon shoes and when they tried to collect I had the Karate kid duel Steve Vai in a guitar off to win it back...
Man, I think I'm starting to sound like Daisy...

PS: might wanna fix the title grammar~
24. Daisy - June 23, 2009 12:54 PM
FAKE!!!!
This is a complete photoshop job. You can tell its a fake because the shadow's are all wrong.
This is exactly like that scene in the movie Never Back Down where Max made a deal with the devil to secure the return of his beer and his chrissy. Max's eagerness to sign the contract confused the devil, and made him so sick he puked up chrissy and the beers.
25. Pat - June 23, 2009 12:56 PM
Like Bart Simpson, I sold my soul and now automatic doors don't open for me.
