Ep. 1.1: Access to Affordable Consumer Credit
Manage episode 168146028 series 1323128
Most of us have needed additional cash at one time or another for unexpected and unbudgeted expenses such as medical bills or car repairs. Payday and auto-title loans are a quick solution to make ends meet in a bind, yet they usually come at a high cost. These loan storefronts are most typically found in lower-income neighborhoods because that's where consumers don't usually have emergency savings; they're living paycheck to paycheck.
This episode highlights how this issue affects individuals and families who find themselves in a crisis and showcases an initiative that provides an alternative to payday and auto-title loans called the Community Loan Center.
