Friendly's quick loans, inc., offers you "$4.10 for $5.10 or i knock on your door." this means you get $4.10 today and repay $5.
storchak [24]
If it costs $5.10 to get $4.10 from Friendly's then the loanee would pay about 24% which is a pretty high interest rate and presumably the interest rate would decrease with a higher amount loaned as on a larger amount the actual amount of interest earned would still be significant with a lower interest rate.
