Borrowing

Where can you borrow?

Most consumer credit comes from: banks, savings and loan institutions, credit unions, finance companies, and credit card companies. In addition, many people borrow from relatives or other individuals who may or may not be good credit sources. Individuals who loan money but don't have a permanent place of business may offer you loans that charge more than the legal interest rate. Wherever you borrow, be sure to get a signed contract, and READ THE FINE PRINT including the terms and the finance charge calculations.
