OP:
so, i find myself slightly up the creek, as it were. while working (driving for uber, like a taxi basically which is my full time income) my car got hit by a guy pulling out fro ma parking meter. damaged my passenger side doors. back one won't open, you get the idea. the guy bolted and as of yet i haven't heard any progress from the police. IF they find him, it'll be ages before there's any money pulled out of him due to the legal process.
in order to get back to work, i'm having to cover the $1000 insurance deductible to get repairs done. it's also taken them nearly three weeks to get the appraiser out to look at the car and such. i'm probably looking at another week or more out of work. my savings are dried up. i've got the usual bills to cover... car payment, insurance, cell phone, food, (not rent thankfully) so i also need a few hundred to cover those expenses.
to sum up: need $1500 usd, interest of 15%, once i actually get back to work, i should be able to repay about $150 usd (bitcoin equivalent, of course) monthly at a minimum. with any luck the cops will find the guy and get the money from him...
since i'm asking for btc, the loan would be repaid in btc, even if the price sky rockets or whatever.
EDIT: people down thread have suggested i take the loan in USD instead. that's fine. anything is fine. i just need my car fixed.
EDIT 2: got some living expenses sorted out, but still need the deductible. i've spoken with a bank about a personal loan, but my credit here and my credit with banks and the like are very different things... EDIT: loan was denied.
