I loan because:
I can. Also, because if our situations were reversed, most of the folks receiving these loans would probably be giving them. So, fair's fair.
About me:
I've spent the last four years traveling worldwide to visit clients in the field and learn from their stories. So far, I've met clients in Peru, Nicaragua, Bosnia, Kenya, Rwanda, Tanzania, the Philippines, Cambodia, and Lebanon, and related trips have taken me to Morocco, Poland, Nepal, India, and more. My upcoming book about it all is called The International Bank of Bob (Walker/Bloomsbury March, 2013), and I hope you'll love it.
