Loans can be a risky if you ask me but if you know that you are able to pay it back then it should be no problem at all.
Take only a loan when you need something that is important and if you can pay it back.
your statement that i underlined is definitely the main problem here,if people know that they can pay the loan back then why starting a discussion with a topic "loans too risky",doesn't make sense at all,so your statement above definitely not helping to resolve the problem,and i think most of people would only requesting a loan when really getting forced or in need
