Micro loans you too can be a banker

With a few dollars, a good will and a computer, you can loan some money to a poor family on the other side of the world. It is very easy to start an account. Paypal account or a credit card, an e-mail address and you are on your way. Follow the link below and find out how. Some of our school clubs are beginning to set up an account as a way of sensitizing students to how they can make a real difference for the good in less fortunate people's lives around the world. Microcredit is a way of "loaning a man the wherewithal to buy a fishing pole" rather than giving him a fish. This is truly compassionate conservatism at its best because it is charity combined with individual responsibility. I have now made five small loans around the world and I get the pleasure of watching them be repaid over the course of the year. Meanwhile I have helped to set up an account at the independent school where I teach, so that I can get concerned students involved and learning about people, economics and capital flows.
