The fact that they're not really officially professional contractors, interestingly, is apparently why Sam is as broke as he is (Describing the whole Avenger thing as relying on "goodwill")

Like when they're Avenging they have access to a nearly bottomless expense account but they don't get an actual paycheck Sounds like a great deal until you have to apply for a mortgage

I'm kinda unsure if Sam is actually poor or just struggling with his sister's desire to get rid of the boat, though? He certainly never seems to have any issues paying for anything, and he's got EXTREMELY expensive, high-maintenance kit. His wings must go through money like water

If he was actually RICH rich then the loan wouldn't be an issue, he could just pay her expenses in cash

Maybe I'm remembering wrong but the impression I got was that he WAS offering to do it and she didn't want him to?

No he was offering to add his name to the SBA loan. Cosign. Because he's famous and goodwill.

Right, no matter what, if he COULD pay off the debt in cash then the time to do it was after the racist banker told him in polite words to kiss off His stated plan to go around hat in hand begging to "every bank in the city" is not what you would do if you had any other choice

Replying to @arthur_affect @jmarquiso and
yea, although I guess a plothole is he probably should have enough money to serve as a cosigner for a moderately sized loan...So how deep in debt is his sister?

My absolutely unsupported headcanon: after the blip, the gov't/life insurance companies which owed benefits or whatever decided no, they didn't, but agreed to pay a percentage - and then when everyone unblipped, decided it needed to be paid back.

Yeah something like the Snap would cause the instantaneous collapse of the entire life insurance industry, which would have a ripple effect that would leave the whole world of finance in a shambles Lots of very angry feral lawyers in the rubble

I mean, leaving aside that half the people vanishing would destroy the actual economy of actual people working at jobs and stuff

Yea, I mean a certain level of suspension of disbelief is needed to accept that the Snap didn't cause a mass extinction event.
