Are loans unavoidable?
| *This post is brought to you by Marks & Spencer* I guess I've been fairly fortunate in that I've never had to apply for a personal loan (unless you count that one time I tried to consolidate my credit cards through Prosper). I can see potential for the need to arise in the future, though. For one thing, I expect it's more a question of "when" than "if" our Discover card will cancel our 0% introductory rate and hike up our interest, and that will be the time to once again look into our options for consolidation loans. There's also the fact that our car isn't that reliable, and we don't even know if we'll be able to get my husband's truck up and running. If we can't, or if my car decides to give up the ghost, we'll most likely be in the market for a car finance loan. Fortunately, there are all kinds of options for us here in the U.S.A., as well as all kinds of loan payment calculators to choose from. If you're in the U.K., though, and need to calculate pounds instead of dollars, you might want to check out Marks and Spencer's personal loan calculator. By the way, did you even know that Marks & Spencer had a financial department? I sure didn't. Apparently there's a lot more to that company than just a place to get classy and comfortable underwear.
