I thought the conversation was over until Daniel accidentally mentioned that he had already visited a dealership. He had chosen a luxury SUV and even discussed financing options. When I asked how he expected to make the payments, he looked toward his father. Mark finally admitted he had encouraged Daniel to put my name on the financing application because my credit was better.
I felt sick. They hadn’t simply expected me to buy a car. They had planned to involve my credit and financial future without my permission. I immediately told them that no application would ever carry my signature.
