Lending money to friends and family can invite unnecessary headache🥵

The Do's & Don’ts of lending money to friends and family 🧵⬇️ Image
🔴Don’t lend to someone you don’t trust

🔷 Ask why they need a loan

Knowing the purpose behind the loan helps you set better repayment terms. In fact, it also makes it easier for you to refuse the loan, should you find it risky.
🔷Assess your financial situation

➡️Secondly, assess your own financial situation. Make sure that you have adequate savings to help them out and do not end up cutting down your living expenses or investments.

Can brand name & perception sometimes cost you customers?

The answer is Yes & Amex cards are a prime case study on it ✨

Tonight, we break a myth that Amex cards are useful only for rich people and not suitable for entry level & beginners 🧵 #ccgeek Image
1️⃣ Why beginners are hesitant?

🔷 Amex have positioned themselves as premium brand, so they feel it is out of reach!
🔷 Many fear high fee 😓
🔷 Less number of serviceable cities
🔷 Blindly sharing referral w/o explaining optimization creates suspicion in mind of applicant! Image
2️⃣ Is Amex cards actually useful for people with bare minimum expenses?

🔷 Yes and to prove the same let's take example of a person having 12K - 30K per month expenses 🙋

🔷 Amex is famous for premium cards but irony is their entry level cards are most rewarding 😉
