Everyone needs a little financial boost some times, but the
short-term payday loans are a proceed at your own risk venture.
Remember Mother saying, “when it rains it pours,” well the old
cliché is true. It seems like when one thing breaks two more
follow. It is difficult in today’s society to just pay the
bills.
Many people find themselves in a jeopardizing situation and
need money quick. After exhausting the kindness of family and
friends they find themselves with no where else to turn.
Payday loan companies make it very easy; you are in and out
in a matter of minutes with cash in hand. They simply require a
few signatures, proof of income and a postdated check. The
process is almost too easy.
When payday rolls around and that hefty finance fee is due
along with the original loan, many find themselves in worse
shape then when they borrowed the money. Interest rates for
short-term loans range from 500 to 800% interest.
For example, if you borrowed $100.00 your payback amount
would be approximately $130.00. This is a steep price to pay
for short a short period of time. If you were to pay off the
loan and not renew you might come out ok, but many renew and
stack the charges. Paying the $30.00 finance fee is much easier
than paying the entire amount to an already strained
budget.
The problem is the fact that the finance charge is not even
touching the original loan. Eventually the loan in full will
need to be paid and the consumer finds that the short-term loan
has cost them hundreds of dollars.
So how do I avoid this? The most obvious solution is to
manage your money and not to overspend. If it is not in the
bank, do not spend it. If you have an emergency uses a credit
card or look to a loan from the bank. Credit card interest is
bad enough, but nothing compared to 500%. Around income tax
time, put away some money and start saving so you build an
"emergency fund".
Make sure that you have a little nest egg for a rainy day
because the sun doesn't shine forever!
You should also consider a 2nd source of income. I'm a big
fan of multiple income streams and believe that anyone counting
on 1 source of income is walking a financial tight wire.
