BACKGROUND
There was a time when Danes used to save up money so they could afford something new. It is no longer the case. Today we want it all in half the time - even young people have expensive furniture, designer clothes, cars and latest technology. In other words, Danes borrow money like never before, the debt on credit cards, consumer loans, overdrafts, etc skyrocketing. It may take a long time to settle climbing debt. In Luxury Trap selected participants have the opportunity to get rid of their debt in just one evening - and get some good advice along the way so they do not wind up in a similar situation. The program is aimed primarily at an audience between 18 and 40 years old, who are still in their "establishment phase" and therefore tempted to borrow money for greater and lesser consumption.
Key Details from the original draft:
"Debt due to over-spending", "Participant tells the host how much they owe and why", "Promissory note (power of attorney)", "Blackboard with amounts and categories", "Material things", "Earned money is used to repay the debt "," Financial Advisors ", "Promissory Note or Power of attorney torn to pieces " ...
A celebrity version of Swedish adaptation of BUMP´s Luxury Trap, "Lyxfällan", aired on 25 August 2020.
Lyxfällan host and financial expert Magnus Hedberg takes care of Swedish celebrities' personal finances in the new Luxury Trap adaptation, called "Dream Trap", "Drömfällan". The program was broadcast in four episodes during its first season on Viaplay, Viafree, and TV3 Sweden.
