I know we have lenders around here, and shasan is the most active one I see. So I started thinking… what if there was a lender who works kinda like a casino loan shark? Someone you can borrow from quickly whenever you need money, no long process, but probably with a high interest rate to balance the risk.

Do you guys think that could even work here? Or is it pointless because of the anonymity and the huge risk for the lender?

curious if anyone sees this as an opportunity or something that would just crash instantly.
Loaning business has been on/off here. Just like what you mentioned, @shasan has been hit hard as well of gamblers or loaners who didn't pay. So I guess it won't work here as gamblers might take advantage of him again and gain trust and then suddenly disappear. It only work in IRL as loan shark has muscle, if you don't pay for sure they will hunt you down. As opposed to this as we are all pseudo-anonymous and even if we trust someone, we will not know that he doesn't or will not pay until the last minute and there's no way for you to go after him. So that is a bad business preposition here, unless there are some collateral. But it's no longer the case in the lending section as they can get a loan without any collateral.
