Posted on November 25, 2017March 31, 2020 by savermetrics

I recently refinanced my mortgage and needed some documents notarized.

My Kiva Loan Defaulted With No Payments

Posted on April 26, 2014April 26, 2014 by savermetrics

I think Kiva is a great idea and platform for connecting investors/donors in developed countries with microfinance lenders in developing countries.
