In reply to the discussion: Texas man accused of threatening to slaughter Capital One execs who robbed him of 'life he deserves' [View all]JoseBalow
(7,000 posts)34. Actually, he's saying that he ALREADY paid it, not that he can't.
Assuming he is correct, if it is possible to give him the benefit of the doubt, his credit was damaged by this huge corporation pursuing a "small" payment erroneously. I know I would be frustrated and upset if that happened to me.
People are asking, "what is $543 to someone who makes $100k per year?" Why not ask, "what is $543 to a corporation that makes $53.261Billion per year?"
Capital One Financial revenue for the twelve months ending September 30, 2024 was $53.261B, a 12.48% increase year-over-year.

You're missing the point. He said he makes six figures and can't pay $543 dollar debt.
