About Me

I am a second born of six children. I received formal education and graduated with a bachelors degree in economics and sociology in 2014. After graduation I tried to look for formal education but non was forthcoming. I taught myself how to design websites and also do online writing. The income has been good but my laptop recently broke down.
I am unable to access work and that has strained my life. Being a second born I have siblings who were looking up to me for financial help as well as moral support.
When I am not working I am providing guidance to my siblings who are in college.

My Business

My business has been going well and I have had my clients who have helped me earn a decent income. However after my laptop broke down I am unable to access work and hence make a living. My costs include monthly Internet subscription. From my income I am able to offer support to my siblings who are in college.
The demand for my services is high and in a week I am able to serve at least three clients.

Loan Proposal

I will purchase a laptop to aid in my online business. The laptop costs approximately $500. The laptop helps me to make a living where I am able to earn up to $100 a week in revenue. Other than aiding my daily work the laptop is also used by my siblings to complete their college homework and other school related activities.

    I would like to help, but why are you requesting $8 if the laptop costs $500?
