A luxurious debtor is odious in law.

Explanation

A debtor who lives extravagantly while refusing to pay his creditors receives no sympathy from the court — the law disfavors those who indulge themselves at the expense of those to whom they owe.

Where this applies

• A debtor lives lavishly while refusing to pay creditors.
• Someone buys luxury items while claiming they cannot afford their debts.
