The 3 Cs of credit
Category: Business Written by Damon Carr
Would you lend $5,000 to a good friend—assuming you have it? If so, what is the time frame you would consider giving your friend to pay you back in full? How will you ensure that your friend pays you back? Will you hold onto something of value from your friend to ensure that your loan is paid? If your friend fell on hard times and had difficulty repaying you, how would you respond? If your friend simply neglected to pay you back, do you think it would put a strain on your friendship? Most of us would have to really think it over before we commit to lending a personal friend that type of money.
