More Money, More Problems? The Danger with Payday Loans

It is becoming far more common these days to hear advertisements on the radio, or see gigantic signs when driving down the street, for relief from financial woes in the form of payday loans. These “convenient”, and we use that term very loosely, almost immediate loans claim to offer that extra money to get you through until the next payday – some even use the excuse to treat yourself as a reason to obtain one. So, does more money really equal more problems?

Are you thinking of getting a payday loan to tide you over for a bit – or even to treat yourself? Wait – these seemingly innocent fast-cash solutions come with their own host of problems, and if you are not aware of the risk you can easily get in over your head – and rather quickly!

First, payday loans are not free – obviously. When a company offers you fast cash, $100 for $20 for example, you might think that this $20 is worth the extra cash in hand at this moment. So you head into the business, provide your paystub and walk out with your loan. The fact that no credit report is required should be a major red flag!! This is definitely one of those times when “sounds too good to be true” really does ring true.

What if that $100 though just doesn’t seem to cut it and instead you are thinking $1000 would be that much better? Now you are talking about a $200 cost – that is a 20% fee to borrow money for sometimes as short a period as two weeks. And borrower beware – 20% here is just an example, as some places will charge far more!

Worse than the fees is the jam you find yourself in when, at the end of the month, you are yet again strapped for cash and can’t pay that payday loan in full. Think about it; if you didn’t have the cash at the beginning of the month, what makes you think you’ll have it at the end? Can’t pay it back in full? Now you are looking at another $200 in interest plus a fee for the extension.

When broken down, it is clear that payday loans are a prime example of fool’s gold – money that never actually belongs to you and just ends up costing you dearly in the end.  Know the dangers before you head into that establishment and perhaps consider some other avenue.

  4. This certainly happens, you ultimately get stuck with bad credit in the end, fast cash looks easy but it can bring a lot of trouble if taken again and again.

  6. HOW I BECAME A VICTOR AFTER SO MANY FAILED ATTEMPT OF GETTING A LOAN.

    I feel so blessed and fulfilled. I've been reluctant in applying for a loan i heard about online because everything seems too good to be true, but i was convinced & shocked when my friend at my place of work got a loan from COLLINS GUZMAN FUNDING'S & we both confirmed it and i also went ahead to apply, today am a proud owner of my company and making money for my family and a happy mom. As a single mom with three kids it was hard to get a job that could take care of me and my kids and I had so much bills to pay and to make it worst I had bad credit so i couldn't obtain a loan from any bank. I had an ideal to start a business as an hair stylist but had no capital to start, tried all type of banks but didn't work out until I was referred by my co-worker to a godsent lender advertising to give a loan at 2% interest rate. I sent them a mail using their official email address (collinsguzmanfundings@gmail.com) and I got a reply immediately and my loan was approved, and I was directed to the Bank site where I withdrawed my loan directly to my account. To cut the story short am proud of my hair stylist company and promise to testify to the world how my life was transformed.. If you are in need of any kind of loan, i advise you contact Collins Guzman Funding's and be financially lifted Email: collinsguzmanfundings@gmail.com OR Call/Text +1 (786) 598-8751
