Not everyone has as much liquid capital as you do. Short term loans can help cover necessary expenses (broken AC, car, etc) for those with less means.



Taking these loans for someone without my means is even worst idea, because the interest payment will hit them more.

And I mean, broken AC is not necessary expense. It is a luxury item. A car may be necessary expense if your place don't have public transport, but at least here, poor people don't have cars.
