Microfinance



  

 
 
 
 

Microfinance is a general term to describe financial services to low-income individuals or to those who do not have access to typical banking services
Microloans loans people money to help them them get a kickstart in a small business that they think will be beneficial to their village or town
 
A microlender is an organization that makes business loans to individuals who are not able to obtain financing from traditional lenders. Microlenders typically charge higher-than-average interest rates; their maximum loan is usually $25,000 or less. Recipients of micro-loans are typically individuals in poverty or in development zones in the U.S., or who live in developing nations.
 
And so that is what Microfinance, Microloans and Microlenders are, very important for those that are looking for money to start a business.

Funny class and Awesome show

Class on Tuesday was very funny, you kept making us laugh with your funny noises and your hilarious stories with you and gurbie I think that was his name. Anyway I found it so funny how you and your friend were throwing him over the nun while she is helping someone. Also how when you threw the eraser into her coffee and she didn't even notice until she took a sip of it and saw.  But what was really funny was the Senior Variety Show, its was really cool how they were singing, they had awesome voices but it was funny when they were making fun of the teachers and the jokes about the school and the parking lot. The funniest thing ive ever heard in my life. I really enjoyed that class on Tuesday and really enjoyed the Senior Variety Show, its was a really fun week so thank you Mr. Schick.

The role of a small loan is it can be used for housing education and ways to improve their lives. They also support you and they will be really compromising. They are lots of challenges to this though. You need to find a good job that pays a good lot, and helps you with loans and stuff like that. And pays you over breaks and off days. The key is you get a high paying job regarding on what it is, then you will be fine with depts. and stuff like that.

Human Geo Class

Today in human geography class we went over what we went over on Monday. Which was Microfinance, which is a company that helps you with insurance by covering some of the money, fund transfers, loans, and also saving accounts in the bank. The role of a small loan is it can be used for housing education and ways to improve their lives. It would give people a start on their small businesses. You see the key is to start saving when your really young and keep adding money to it every week and the bank adds a little bit for joining there bank so yeah youll have extra money for back up incase you need it for some reason. That's what I do right now so I think its smart because you always have back up money. And who ever is reading this should do that to.

REview

Today in Human Geography class we got scared when Mr. Schick, showed us that photo of this alien type dude. He looked mad because he had a horn sticking out of his head and he had one eye, he looked really scared and ugly. The reason of that was because our average grade was a C when it was open blog. But I cant be talking because I got a C on that test and I know why because I thought I was going to do good but not because there was two questions I didn't have the answers to and there was a few I did something dum and wrote the wrong person silly me oh well my grade right now is a seventy-nine percent so one good grade will bring that up.

Human Geo

Today in Human Geography class we got to groups and Microfinance, Peace Corps Challenge. We did the challenge and we did okay I guess. There were some games that I guess I did well with because I did better then Devin Darrington. Then we did the challenge, very interesting because we realized that it was hard at first but then we got the hang of it. I got so happy when we passed the challenge and I don't even know why. Then we took notes on the paper we did about Microfinance.
I cant wait till tomorrow or Wednesday because I am very anxious to see what I got on my OPEN BLOG test. I don't know why but I feel like I failed it. Well on that note that's how I will end this blog.

TEST DAY

Today in class we took the human geography, country and presidential test. Guess what, now you say what, well I don't know how I did cause I knew that the answers were right but I got this feeling in me that I failed for some reason and I don't know why, it just feels that way. But who cares will just have to see when I get the test back some time next week. My goal is to get a B or better in this human geography class because no one likes Cs and I wouldn't take them either so I guess Bs or better. You see you want good grades because colleges like to see really high grades because you can get scholar ships and everything. So that way your future after college when you have a job is good and you can get paid lots of money and live in a nice house with your family.
