I have 0% risk with this method.
You have 0% risk with this method.
All risk is contained to the end-borrower.
I take 50% profit because it's my money you are using. [/size][/color]

Call it rental or partnership whatever. The point is that we both benefit

wrong, you have 0% risk in this method but this is risky for anyone that would like to borrow money from you to start lending. you are asking for collateral and what could happen once you get the collateral? what is stopping you from selling the collateral and run away?

My partner would also ask for collateral from his borrower. And for my part we could use escrow....

The ease at which 'escrow' accounts can be purchased or proxied/etc. nullifies the use of escrow as a safety measure. A malicious 'lender' could control or have an accomplice control this trusted user account - this way, someone would send the escrow collateral, which would then end up in your hands - leaving them with nothing, and at a loss.
