    Any financial experts in here??

    My girlfriend is in post grad school and needs to pay for her up coming semesters tuition. It’s not a large amount of money, however it’s more than we both could comfortably afford at this time.
    Just recently I took out a used car loan from an online bank, it was an unsecured loan with a very low interest rate. The whole process was very easy. They offer multiple different loans, each having a different interest rate based on the type of loan. Unfortunately they do not have a loan for education.
    But my idea was to apply for a used car loan, she has great credit so I know they would offer her an unsecured loan, which means they just drop the money into your bank account and you buy the car... they do not put a lien on the title, Hell they don’t even need any proof you even bought a car which is why I’m thinking she could just take that money and pay her tuition. Is there any legal trouble you can get into doing this? I hate doing the wrong thing but, interest rates on personal loans are insane.

    Diesel I would say the same thing except I used them myself just recently to purchase a truck. They were recommended to me by a dealer. I was in the market for a king ranch super duty and those things are crazy expensive (especially with the diesel) so, the only way I could afford one was to get one with high mileage, which my bank would not give me a loan for (they suck and had higher interest rates anyways).

    Tell her to fill out a FAFSA and get a federally subsidized loan

    Buy a tripod or chest harness for your smartphone, film amateur porn with your girlfriend and sell the content on one of the popular amateur sites like ManyVids. Basic POV for $4.99 per video, anal for $6.99, roleplay for $7.99, and fetish for $9.99. Used panties for $12.99+ Shipping, 3 pairs of panties for $30, 6 pairs for $50. Set aside 1 hour in the morning and 1 hour in the evening to film. Edit on your downtime. You can edit the video with any free software of your choice.

    20 minutes per pop is 3 videos per session, 6 videos per day, or 180 videos per month. With a mean video price of $7.25 if you sell each video 3 times you will generate $3, 915.00

    Is that enough for her tuition?

    If it's a "girlfriend" don't worry about it, she'll figure it out

    Really tho - getting a unsecured loan for education could be a great idea, or a real bad one


    And, no lender I have dealt with will not just let a car go without adding a lien


    Private personal loan - maybe

    My wife TA and got her own fellowships during both her Ph.D and PostDoc. There are many options if you look around that do not have to do with loans.

    This is the way to go.... let the government ie tax payers pay her interest while in school! I believe they are at 3.4% right now subsidized.

    If it works go with it.
    I haven't read the fine print but with the amount that I owe the bank I think both my kidneys and my first born child are theirs for collateral.

    If you really need to go the borrowing route then you need to be comparing the overall cost of a finance deal versus a bank loan. Depending on your credit status, a loan from a bank will normally be cheaper. Also you can check some information here theguaranteedloans.com/personal-loans-for-unemployed/ . Hope it helps

    I know what loans are from my own experience. I still have my student loan. Also, I faced some financial issues due to the shutdown and had to get one more loan. Usually, people worry whether they can afford to pay a debt off or not. Here my advice is to use a loan payments calculator. It helps to find out a monthly payment. I personally found it useful.

    This thread is two years old. Hopefully, the OP's girlfriend is finishing grad school right now.

    If you really have to choose the borrowing route then you should compare the overall cost of a finance deal vs any bank loan. The bank loan will be cheaper definitely. If you ask me about my personal experience then I have a good experience with the payday loans near me in California. Have a look at the services and hope it helps.
