As p2p investors we are funding loans all the time but we never know much about the people we are investing in. I want to try and change that a little. So, in this latest edition of the Lend Academy podcast we going over to the other side of the p2p lending equation as I talk with a borrower.

In this episode you will hear about the experience from Ivy K. a recent borrower at Lending Club:

  • Why she decided to get a p2p loan.
  • The challenges she had in getting a loan.
  • The big difference between the interest rate quotes she received.
  • What happened to her credit score after taking out a Lending Club loan.
  • How she was able to pay off her loan early.
  • The only debt that she will take on from now on.
  • What she wants to do once she is debt free.

You can subscribe to the Lend Academy Podcast via iTunes or Stitcher. There is an audio player directly below or you can download the MP3 file here.
