Weird and Wonderful Loans
Posted on Wednesday, May 28th, 2008 at 5:44pmBotox, bulls and boats; what’ve they all got in common? Not much, you’d be forgiven for thinking.
But you’d be wrong. Bizarrely, they’re all reasons people give loans companies for needing to borrow money.
Lenders ask their customers why they need the money and, following research by Accepted.co.uk, it was discovered that a huge 43 percent of the loans companies surveyed regularly dole out money for plastic surgery.
Whether it’s used for boob jobs, bum lifts or belly tucks isn’t specified, but there’s now no doubt that people throughout the UK are taking out loans to give their bodies a makeover.
One of the lenders surveyed also provides loans for ‘livestock purchase’, while others will give you cash for everything from boat purchases and school fees to holidays and caravan investments.
So there you go, if you want a loan - no matter how weird or wonderful the reason for needing it - you’ll probably be able to get it from somewhere.
Just remember, go easy on the botox.
