You're welcome.
Jeff according to your site a $1,000 loan for 7 days will cost someone $253.45 resulting in an Annual Percentage Rate of 1321.61% This is according to your link. I don't think the Mafia loan sharks pop you for 25% for a one week loan!

As we all know that payday loans have a very high interest rate, but the benefit is that a person can come out of the financial crisis that he/she is suffering from and satisfy the urgent needs. No doubt that it may create a circle for debt for people who cannot repay them back on time. The terms & conditions should properly be understood by the person applying for the loan.

Payday lenders fill a need - quick cash. They are a bad thing, no doubt. But, just because something is a bad financial idea is no need to make its activity illegal.
Harsh penalties encourage responsible behavior. In school, you had to remain after class for acting up. In life, someone will take your money or freedom as punishment for your poor choices. Some people need to be rapped on the back of the hand to get them to realize that they ought to straighten up. I think of the payday lenders as just such instructors. People will do what they do. Consider payday lending confiscatory interest rates as tuition toward a PhD in Sound Judgment. Last edited by AllThingsPersonalFinance; 04-11-2008 at 12:13 PM. |
