Loan Proposal

I thank God my wife has gone through the medication and she is now healed.
I am now submitting my loan proposals to purchase toner and stationary to be used in the cyber to generate money by offering additional services to clients besides the normal computer training that is in progress. Part of this funds i shall use for printing poster to direct clients to Simben ICT Training College.
Computers working well are five students pay 3500/= training for Ten weeks
there are five sessions per day
8.00 am to 10.00 am
10.00 am to 12 noon
12.00 noon to 2.00 pm
2.00 pm to 4.00 pm
4.00 pm to 6.00 pm

Productivity 3500/= for 10 weeks = 350 per week per student (five days a week)
70 per day per student thus 70 by 25 = 1750 per day
1750 for one week = 8,750 plus a few printing works = 10,000/=

I am looking forward to a better business period and hope my proposal is making sense.
Wishing you all the best as you prepare to support my business.

With Kind regards
Simon Sabwa

    Dear Lender

    It was nice speaking to Lilian. She actually enlightened me on were i was going wrong.
    I have got the point wrong in that, what ever i was repaying weekly was not counting on my credit score until i complete the scheduled weekly amount, Things are still not so good but hopefully will improve in the coming days. I shall work hard toward completing repayment of my outstanding loan.
    Thanks all
    Regards Simon.
