Have you heard of websites like Lending Club and Prosper? If not then you should seriously look into them right now. With these social lending websites you can create a passive income stream (which means your money works for you, instead of you working for money) where you reinvest your earnings and credit worthy borrowers pay you monthly (cutting out the banks, investment firms, and the middlemen).
Pretty cool huh?
Websites like Lending Club and Prosper help by:
- Screening and scoring creditworthy borrowers
- Allow borrowers to list their loan listings and tell their stories
- Protect the lender's privacy and offer ID theft protection against fraudulent borrowers.
- And much more
Why do borrowers use this service?
They are so many reasons why borrowers choose to display their stories to potential lenders using these sites. But most of them need help with:
- Debt consolidation
- E-commerce Investment
- Buy a large ticket item
- Down payment on a House
- Lawyer representation
- To Pay Taxes
- Medical/Dental Expenses
- Home improvement
- even, Engagement Rings & Weddings
Now, let me warn you, this is not a get rich quick scheme. Please read all the information that I provide below as a resource on how to use these sites to get the best return and make sure you understand what you are getting into before you do it.
And if you decide to take this route to gaining a little extra cash, let me know how you do. I love hearing success stories. Because after all, I've always wanted powerful and influential friends!
