Hi everyone, Do you know of anyone or any company who lends / loans money to freelancers? I have my own virtual services job and I need a small amount of money (just around 5k) to add some equipment to my home office. My pay-out is still on the 15th of next month and I need to buy the equipment as soon as possible to fulfill some client requirement. I hope anybody out there can help. Your response is highly appreciated.
There's one I know, you can borrow 5k but if you don't pay back right away, after a months interest you'll end up paying 10k, pretty much in a year you'll owe him over 100k and you'll be in debt forever, he is a freelancer too.
Freelance what? I have been a freelance web developer for three years and my only "office" equipment is a laptop, chair, and table. I have never had a real office. A business isn't your office or equipment. As long as you are getting paid you have all the equipment you need. Make the money first, then buy the equipment.
