probably breaking your lunch down into four payments over the course of a year, maybe not necessarily the best thing.

But here's what's interesting here.

This is some data from Klarna that they're sharing.

When it comes to canceling your credit card, switching to buy now, pay later,

People who earn $100,000 or more annually, they're the ones who are making the switch more than anyone else.

This is actually a higher-end consumer thing that is happening, not so much at the lower tiers financing a burrito.

These are people who are making good money, and they're switching, and one of the big motivations is a 0% APR.

You look at what Klarna just launched as far as its subscription services.

But I will say that as I've dug in a little bit deeper here with Klarna and tried to understand what they're doing, I mean, to your point, Matt, as far as the perceived riskiness of this, if your top adopters are some of your highest income people, that is actually lower risk than what a lot of people might think.

And so definitely something that I need to do a little bit more digging into and not be so dismissive because it does seem like there's something here for investors.
