Payday loans
I think most of us have a sense that payday loans are probably not the best source for a loan, that they probably charge a lot of money to those people who need that cash really badly.발음듣기
And what I want to do in this video is one, explain what they are but even more do a little bit of math to understand really how bad of an interest that they do charge,발음듣기
So the way that works is let's say that I need to buy my wife a nice gift for her birthday that's tomorrow and I want to borrow $500.발음듣기
I would suspect that most people aren't borrowing it for some type of a gift, they're desperate to make the rent or pay the utilities or buy food or who knows what else,발음듣기
but whatever your reason, you need to borrow $500 and I would suspect that you have very little in your bank account, otherwise you wouldn't go to the payday lender.발음듣기
And they say all right Sal, we're open to lending you $500 and we're not going to do all of this deep research on how good of a credit you are and all of that, but we want a couple of things.발음듣기
They're going to want to see your pay stub, they're going to they want to know when you're going to get paid, so I guess we call it your payday.발음듣기
And the whole reason why they want these things is they want to know you know even though your credit might be horrible,발음듣기
then you're going to get your salary or you're going to get a payment from your employer probably in two weeks on your payday, and then you're going to be good to pay back to the $500.발음듣기
And to ensure this, so one they're going to make sure that you have a job, that in your pay stub maybe you make $1,000 every two weeks or maybe you make $2,000 every two weeks so that you're good for this.발음듣기
So two weeks from today. And then your bank statement shows that your bank kind of goes up $1,500 and you pay the rent and the food and then it goes back close to zero, then it goes up to $1,500 but they want to see that this $1,500 is hitting periodically.발음듣기
We want you to write a check for not $500, for every $100 you borrow, I want you to pay us back another $25.발음듣기
And at the end of this video, we're going to do the map on what that actually turns into on an APR, or an effective APR basis.발음듣기
So if I'm borrowing $500, I have to give them back the $500 in two weeks plus $25 for every $100.발음듣기
I'm going to write a check, but obviously I don't have the money in my bank account right now, otherwise I wouldn't even be going to the payday loan.발음듣기
I'm going to put the date, let's say this is the first of the month, instead of let's say, it's January 1, I'm going to put January 16 and whatever year I might be doing it.발음듣기
Two weeks in the future, and then I'm going to sign the check and I'll write it's for a payday loan and I'll write $625 etc. etc., then I have my little information here.발음듣기
And I'm going to give them this check and what they're going to say is we're not going to cash this, we're just going to keep this nice little check for us and when your payday hits you have an option.발음듣기
You can come back to us and give us $625 in cash and then we will give you back this check that is uncashed or if you don't show up, we are just going to cash this check.발음듣기
But effectively, if you didn't lie to them, they're going to essentially charge you $625 and you can imagine it is risky for the lender or because these are people with you know be maybe shady pay stubs and obviously they're desperate,발음듣기
so they weren't good at managing their finances, but they're doing their best to ensure that once that payday comes in, once that's that payment from the employer comes in, that they get first dibs was on the money before the person can pay their rent or their utilities or their food.발음듣기
Now we start off saying this probably not a good idea and you got a sense of that, because we're essentially paying 25% interest for every two weeks, not for every year.발음듣기
25 per 100, so this is literally 25% interest or we could write it the traditional way, this is 25% interest per two weeks.발음듣기
So if we were just calculate a simple APR, a simple annual percentage interest rate, and you might want to watch the video on that to understand that that just takes your 25% and then multiplies by the number of periods in the year.발음듣기
So we have 52 weeks per year, but this is every two weeks, so instead of multiplying it by 52 weeks, we're going to multiply by there's 26 two-week periods in the year.발음듣기
When you multiply this out, this is equal to - let's get the calculator out - I'll just multiply the numbers, I won't do the decimals.발음듣기
So if you thought the credit card companies were charging a lot of interest, charging you a mid teens interest rate or 20% rate, this is 650%.발음듣기
So this is a really, really, crazy annual percentage rate and this was just a simple annual percentage rate where we multiplied it by 26, this isn't the effective annual percentage rate, or the actual mathematically correct one.발음듣기
To do that, we would actually have to take - and you might want to watch the video on this - if you were to let that just compound,발음듣기
and you can imagine if you're the payday lender, you are essentially getting that compounding if you keep lending your money out and if you lend the interest you get from the last person, and you lend that out the same rate.발음듣기
To figure out that effective annual percent rate, you do 1.25, 25% plus 1 to the 26th power.발음듣기
And then we get this crazy number, we're going to want to subtract a 1 from it, not that it's going to change much of our math.발음듣기
So minus 1, and we get, well let me be very clear - essentially this is 329 times our money.발음듣기
So let me just be clear, this number right here that number right there is such a high number it's hard to fathom.발음듣기
If you were to actually let money compound at this rate, and usually they would make you at least roll over the principal, so this may or may not be accurate but that actual payday lender, if they actually are able to roll over the money at this rate, they're going to have 329 times their money.발음듣기
Or after a year, you'll essentially have to pay roughly 330 times your money back to the payday lender.발음듣기
And obviously they don't let you compound like that, but this just gives you a sense of how ridiculous this interest rate is.발음듣기
In the past, usury really meant any kind of interest, but now in our current cultural context we associate it with just an unreasonable level of interest and that threshold might be different for some people.발음듣기
Some people might say it's unreasonable to pay 20%, or 30% interest, or 40% annual interest.발음듣기
But I think everyone would agree that whether you look at 650% or 33,000%, these are usurious and reasonable interest rates.발음듣기
