You own 100k at 2% interest rate per week(compoundable)[Business Thread]

[Evil E]

The title should read "You owe 100k..."I

'm summoning the power of the collective knowledge of GFY. This is pretty important.

Let's say this was the case. What would you do?

You don't have a job, no real education and no work experience.

The interests only are 2000$ per week.


I would like to know as someone I know is in a lot of trouble and in a similar scenario. Maybe one of you will have a good idea. Feel free to post out of the box ideas.

[TidalWave]

do you still have the $100k?

Hey guys, 2% interest rate per week is ILLEGAL. So that means that you can't file bankruptcy because you have no loans and no credit. You owe that money to bad guys. You also cannot borrow from friends/family because they know won't lend you any.

I suggested him to go to work in Afghanistan but he doesn't want to.

[WiredGuy]

That's an illegal interest rate in most places, 104% interest, he's nuts for even agreeing to such a rate.

That's what I said a few post earlier. It's not a loan from a bank! Why do you guys just read the first post then reply?

I'm very unsure and skeptic that someone who post here is intelligent enough to come out with a good solution(even if it's only a way to lower the interest rate to a civilized one(25% or 30% annually would even be OK for that guy) but I will keep hope. That could allow the person to pay that loan.

I'm just trying to get ideas and solutions here.

Try and scape together the cash or someone to co sign for a smaller loan. If you can get 10-15K you can probably get someone to take the guy out you owe the 100K too.

[bDok]

want blunt truth here. He was dumb enough to get in this trouble. He won't suddenly be smart enough to get out of it.

period.

I thought about this. It is very possible. But I'm pretty sure that he can pay back what he owes, the only problem is that he has to pay 10K per month, just for Interests.

Maybe there's a way to find a load somewhere with lower Interest rate but higher than the typical bank would still be good if you know what I mean.


Anyways, If you guys can chip in for a bit a brainstorming, please do, It would be greatly appreciated.

[WarChild]

So is it a gambling debt or loan shark?

[SmokeyTheBear]

i think what you're asking if another loan shark will cover the first loan sharks loan at a lower interest rate.


first off i suggest your friend learn some simple math . if he is paying 2% per week interest on a 100k loan and he is paying 10k per month then 2k is missing every month right off the bat.

i don't think your going to find a loan shark on gfy , but it would help if you posted what he has for collateral

p.s. selling a kidney would buy some breathing room

I'm not sure, might be a mix of both. Also part of that debt is from another guy. Then he has to pay back like a suckah

Not looking for a loan shark at all... but sometimes people have legal loan contracts... that was more the option I was looking for if it's possible to find.

The figures I posted in the thread are all rounded and averaged as I don't have access to the exact numbers. But you get the point.

No tangible collateral at all. More than shitty credit(cannot get a loan or cc)

P.S.: I don't think the kidney is an option, but how much can you get from it?

[WarChild]

Maybe he can get a job working on an oil rig up in Alaska over the winter or something like that. The worst jobs in the worst conditions pay pretty good money and especially good when you consider there's nothing to spend it on. MAYBE he can send enough to cover the interest and part of the principal if he doesnt spend a dime on anything else and works his ass off for the next few years.

[Evil E]

I think the job that pays the most in Alaska is the sea fishing(for crabs usually). That's very dangerous.

[Slick]

Well, if he has no collateral and shitty credit, he's fucked.

Does he have a decent job that makes some nice cash ?

This might sound like a stupid question, but when he took the money, what was his plan on paying it back ??? Did he borrow it for a "sure win" sports bet that he thought he could cash in, then pay it back right away, but it didn't go his way ?

nobody is going to loan money to pay back a loan shark unless they are a loan shark.

the first 2 questions they are going to ask is .

What do you need the money for?

How do you intend to repay the loan ?

if either of those involve illegal activity you aren't going to get a legal loan .

if they intend on lying to get the loan then your asking for someone to recommend someone to loan money to someone who has no ability to pay it back ( not very smart )

i see 4 possible options.

#1 sell a kidney buy some time

#2 get a second loan from original loan shark for 100k and bet it all on red

#3 get really drunk , grab an atm machine

#4 run like hell

[AlienQ - BANNED FOR LIFE]

Goto Vegas and bet on black.

[SmokeyTheBear]

ok wait , i seriously think i have a solution.

interesting stories get alot of blog airtime, and news airtime.


first let me point out this may be illegal in your country and i am not condoning any sort of illegal activity in any way whatsoever , merely theorizing on a hypothetical situation.


www.buymykidney.com is available.

LOTS of people need kidney's , lots of RICH people need kidney's

start a 1 month or 1 week online anonymous auction.

i'm dead serious , i bet he could settle the whole debt this way.

it's been done before ,and there are countries where the operation can be arranged.

I don't know 100% about his finances, but like I said I'm pretty sure he makes enough or could work enough hours to cover a loan with a smaller interest rate.

As for the borrow thing, I have no idea but it's possible.

[RawAlex]

2% per week (or 110% per year without compounding, more like 150% a year with compounding) is illegal to the point of stupidity. If you owed that 100k, you are pretty much fucked solid, because you borrowed from the wrong people.

Double or nothing the amount by betting AGAINST a Boneprone lock, and your problems are solved.

I'm not asking for someone to loan from here, but more for ideas and see if it's possible to find a good recovery plan.

Your options are very creative, I'm impressed!

#1 I'm not sure he's willing to do that but I'll mention it LOL

#2 That's very scary but could work. You only have 1 chance and if you fail, you owe twice more and your twice deeper in shit.

#3 Very illegal and all the atm machines that you could carry in a truck are owned by the mafia/bad guys... so you'll have the police + bad guys going after you. I'm also very unsure that the small ATMs have more than 10k in them at a time.

#4 I suggested the relocation scenario and work somewhere it pays good but apprently it's not an option. I'll recommend it again.

OMG that cracked me up.

By the way, I want to remind you guys that is just an exercise for a case scenario. It's not a true life scenario if you know what I mean.

I don't know anyone involved in illegal activities that I'm aware of.

[halfpint]

Over here in the UK they have The CAB "Citizens Advice Bureau" They have special finacial advisers which you can talk to for free for people who get into this position They also help and advise on people going bankrupt

Dont they have the same kind of thing over in the USA ?

[xmas13]

Last option: Go to the FBI and beg for help.



But better find other options.

[Evil E]

I had an Idea but I'm not sure if there's enough time to convince/find the people to execute this stunt.

#1 Get 1000 100$ donations from friends
#2 Get 100 small 1000$ loans from friends

[xmas13]

Sharks never settle for the original amount. Assuming they would (your friend is desperate, not sharks) is a big mistake.

Kidney Auction on the Internet Halted
By: AP Published: 09/03/1999


The bidding for a human kidney offered on the Internet auction site eBay hit $5.7 million before the company put a stop to it yesterday.

eBay spokesman Kevin Pursglove said he had no idea if the offering was for real, but the auction was stopped because the seller broke eBay's rules outlawing the sale of body parts.

Selling one's own organs is also illegal under federal law. It is punishable by up to five years in prison or a $50,000 fine.

"Any time you have an open trading environment with almost 6 million registered users, you're likely to see somebody who tries to bend the rules, or to pull a prank on their fellow users," Pursglove said.

The seller, identified as "hchero" from Sunrise, Fla., started the bidding at $25,000 on Aug. 26.

The description read: "Fully functional kidney for sale. You can choose either kidney. Buyer pays all transplant and medical costs. Of course only one for sale, as I need the other one to live. Serious bids only."

Dr. Thomas Reardon, president of the American Medical Association, said he was taken aback when he heard about the kidney auction.

"Wow. Well, first of all, I'd question the ethics of any doctor who would participate in that kind of transaction," Reardon said.

eBay spokeswoman Jennifer Chu said last night that the online auction has rules about what can be listed for sale, but has no screening process.

eBay rules forbid users from listing illegal or inappropriate items, including guns, body parts and Cuban cigars, Chu said. She said eBay believes the seller may have been joking and she hinted that further action by eBay may be forthcoming.

Thousands of patients die waiting each year for transplants. Of transplantable organs, the greatest demand is for kidneys, with more than 40,000 patients waiting for a transplant, according to estimates from the United Network for Organ Sharing.

Another idea:

Enroll in the army.

How much do they pay?

[Evil E]

Ok, I have another option, but it's only available for US residents and Their server is crashing right now.

http://www.prosper.com/

[Vick!]

Start a torrent website with 5k, spend 45k on promotion. And after that generating 2k a week to pay interest would not be a problem.
Only 21 AFF sales per week.

Remember, you still have 50k in bank.


PS. If you like, you can handover to me and I will pay 2% weekly + 2% per month to yourself.

[V_RocKs]

Prosper will only get him $25,000 tops.. And without a job and good credit it would get him $2,000 tops...

Basically kiss your friend goodbye because he is as good as dead.

Period.

[Evil E]

Bump for the day crowd.

[SomeCreep]

Huh, who the F#@K charges 2% per week = 104% annual interest? Lol.
