Been hearing some recent stories in the local village of folks getting behind on payments to the local loan sharks. These are the guys you usually see riding two-up on a Honda CBR-150 or -250 with one guy carrying a small satchel. Weapons on board for sure so not guys you want to mess with. At any rate, has anyone ever had any direct experience with how much interest they charge? People do end up disappearing if they can't pay up. Folks starting restaurants needing a bit of cash use them and we had a neighbor years ago that moved out rather quickly when the business venture was not working out. Getting in dept in Thailand is a dangerous proposition and wondering how wide spread this issue is.
