Programmer and Blogger Seeks Debt Consolidation Loan

My Prosper Group is proud to present our first listing… This listing is attempting to put the social in social capital. Deep Market also posted the following Social Lending is not Socialism.

He has been a member of my group, following the p2p lending market and commenting on RateLadder for some time.

He is a computer programmer and independently runs the stock market blog Deep Market.

The loan will be a straight forward debt consolidation… Reducing his credit card rates and putting himself on a payment plan will help him eliminate this debt faster…

The debt accumulated from a failed attempt at running his own consultancy… He is back to work with a steady paycheck and cash flow is no longer the issue…

I bid $126.76 @ 1%…

He is in a “moderate” portfolio plan slice at 12.4%… All bids welcome, but if you want to ensure you are on the loan please bid under 12.4% (11.73% as a final rate would have an estimated yield of 8%)…

Here is what prosper says about that slice…

Minimum bid rate: 12.40%
Estimated loss1: -2.59%
Adjustment2: -0.14%
Servicing fee: -1.00%
Estimated return3: 8.67%

Here is the listing.

I just put $50 towards the loan.

I remember exchanging some emails with DeepMarket back when he was trying to get a loan and couldn’t due to the rate caps in his area.

Hey Tom - thanks for the vote of confidence! You and RateLadder were very helpful last year when I was fighting with the State interest rate cap for Virginia - you both gave me a lot of excellent advice. We will see if we can get this listing funded.
