Articles about Loan

Giving a loan and taking a loan has always been a way of life. For the lender the loan giving is a way of living while the borrower tides over a critical period with the help of a loan. One can take a loan for many things – buying a car, an appliance, for meeting educational expenses or giving for throwing a party or going on a holiday. The lender advances the loan with two primary conditions – the payment of interest and the keeping back of something of value as security. The most important type of loan is taking one to buy a house.

In yester years there was a piggy bank standing on the fireplace teaching the family the wisdom of saving for a rainy day. But all that has become history and aggressively a loan culture has been peddled making it almost fashionable to take a loan. The credit card hysteria took over the entire nation and more dangerous were the sub-prime loans that have ultimately led to the foreclosure crisis.

Drowning in debts, evicted from foreclosed homes because of inability to repay the house loan and without the backing of savings, Americans are in the throes of the worst type of recession since the 1930’s. It has triggered off unemployment and with the vicious circle of credit freeze, collapsing banks and industrial shut downs Americans are unable to repay house loans – even after refinancing.

It is loans that have started to flood bankruptcy courts and brought down the people on their knees as they hunt for any sort of shelter and handouts of food for survival.
