I'm no baller but thankfully my days of borrowing money are long gone.

I have never loaned anyone money and I never will.

My Uncle used them alot to keep his business going, 20% think it was for a week IIRC.
He floated me a small loan long ago using his guy, he paid the interest for me.

I did. I borrowed $3K from the girl who was my girlfriend at the time. I paid the cash back, but instead of interest, I had to marry her. Shit, if I could tell you what that has already cost me! I'm still payin' too I tell you, no end in sight. Take it from me, don't ever do that shit, it ain't worth it!

Many years ago from "friends" of my crazy Russian pal.

Anything under $50k and it was 10% but you had 2 weeks. I paid several days early.

My first mortgage was almost 11%, plus PMI. That's loan shark territory.
