Greed is good? Loan 'sharks' are in the water and prepared to financially ruin our Marines
Article Abstract:
Marines are advised to stay away from borrowing money from payday loan 'sharks' that charge exorbitant rates of interest on their loans. The safe alternative to these loans, which might well ruin the Marines financially is the Navy-Marine Corps Relief Society (NMCRS), which helps Marines in a legitimate crisis, and the necessity to educate Marines on this issue might make it seem that the greed for fit and happy Marines ready for combat is good if it keeps them away from payday loans.
