» lending money
When it comes to investing money there are a number of possible options. One possibility is a fixed deposit account. This is where you invest your money for a set period of time. The fact that you are willing to tie your money up means that you can generally expect to receive higher rewards.
As you can probably imagine from its name, predatory lending is an unfair way of lending money. Most people will have heard words like ‘loan shark’ used before and this is a good description of predatory lending. The people involved in this business can make a lot of money for themselves, but they can also make life very miserable for those who are unlucky enough to have borrowed money from them. This is not just something that happens in movies; people do end up with ruined lives because of this type of lending. Even in civilised place like the UK you will find plenty of people involved in this type of illegal business.
