It is still extremely far from the old days when money lent, was money/gold in the vault
I have a easier time accepting 8% interest charge when someone actually took money out of their pocket to lend me versus a ponzi like scheme with “strict regulatory rules and statistics blah blah loan loss provisions” (which sounds wonderful and for our good and safety).
They make a shit ton of money…
The models are just risk and likelihood based to determine cash requirements and how much they can lend out (way more than cash they have) yet they charge the same fee as if they had the funds.
I’d rather borrow from my grandma and pay her 8% since she deserves it for parting with her money.
