Loanio.com sucks already
October 1st, 2008They only have 1 borrower & her score is better on loanio.com than it is on her duplicate Prosper listing & we all know how bad Scorex sucks.She's a D on Prosper.C at Loanio.
Kinda a bad omen to see such a shitty thing roll out as the very 1st listing.
Dear Congressman

But I do want to let you know, if you vote for it, I will be voting against you on November 4.
Very Truly Yours,
Your Constituent
Dear Zopa
September 2nd, 2008Dear Zopa,
Your product for "lenders" is no longer competitive.3.75% one year CD isn't in the ballpark with other internet rates.
The novel idea of Zopa just isn't worth it when last week,WAMU had a 5% one year CD on offer.Several rates above 4.5% are still out there.
AA credit is the only grade left that will return a profit on Prosper
August 23rd, 2008Using March 1 2006-March 1 2008 to screen out early loans from Prosper employees to themselves on the early date & the later date to give the loans a few months to age returns information that only AA loans are not negative return when you factor in late loans.Keep in mind when you view the link that you also need to subtract at least 85% of the loans that are 1 month late or more because historically on Prosper,loans that go one month late ,go on to default 85% of the time.
