I don't want a handout, I want a loan

This world has gone downhill. A person asks for a LENDING INSTITUTION to contact him, and he gets called a scammer, a loser and gets treated like crap. People, You need to reilize one important truth. YOU AIN'T BETTER THAN ANYBODY!!!!! THE ONLY WAY TO JUDGE YOURSELF IS TO SEE YOURSELF THRUOGH ANOTHERS EYES. READ THE COMMENTS YOU'VE MADE! YOU PEOPLE MAKE ME SICK

Maybe skipping X-mas presents this year would be in order. Instead, take your family to a soup kitchen to help serve the homeless who aren't as lucky as you to have what you do. Make it a family tradition to teach your kids that giving is better than receiving. Don't get a loan. You probably have too many to deal with right now. Celebrate x-mas with the fact that you have a loving family with good health. Christmas has become too commercial lately.

so you'd be fine with a rate of 70%. Is that why you have bad credit????? Go get another part time job, they just might like that more.

Do day labor temp agency, one that will pay you like the same day fifty bucks after taxes and thren do your shopping at big lots and target.

EDIT- Poster, why are you displaying all of this "you people make me sick" Trust me, nobody is going to give you a loan if you display that kind of an attitiude.

seriousely, Maybe you need to not worry about this year if you have no money, Taking out a loan with a surperiorly high interest rate is BAD FINANCIaL planning.

Good Luck

Taking care of your family and planning for the future are more important than getting them xmas gifts this year. You need to focus on cleaning up your financial habits. Needing a LOAN for gifts shows that you have to make better decisions about your money. Start spending less than you earn and pay cash for everything. If you really don't want a handout, get a 2nd job or sell some of your stuff.

Take them somewhere for Christmas.

Make them handmade presents.

Write a beautiful poem, and wrap it as a present.

Wrapping paper? Comics from the newspaper.

Adopt a dog or cat from the pound, and give it to your son.

Think differently. Do things that don't cost money, or little money and live and enjoy life that way.

Pay your highest interest loans first, then work your way down from there. Always take a small amount for yourself to live on, before paying any bills. Don't buy anything else, and no more loans.

Do you have a house or car you can borrow against?

I think you got some good feedback, not sure why are so upset. Maybe you feel too sensitive about your situation and felt you'd get a magic answer like such and such bank will lend to you. But people have listed alternatives like programs that can provide gifts for your son, a second job and so on.

Ignore the other mean comments. Everyone has problems some times. Check with the salvation army or a local church for help with gifts for your son. Salvation army might be able to help out with your wife too if she needs something like a new coat. It doesn't hurt to ask. good luck.

If you get this loan, next year you will be in the same position, and you will be seeking another loan.
You are better off to show your family you love them, not with money.

Get a decent job, then handle yourself like a man. Forget this year and try harder for next year...If you don't you'll just dig yourself a deeper hole....You sound like a loser. I feel bad for your son.

You can go to www.freecycle.org to pickup free stuff and give away free stuff. Never know what you'll get.

Or get on craiglist site and sell your unwanted items.

If you must couldn't you apply for a credit card from Sears, JCPenny's-something like that?
