  • PPL, this is a place for discussing Kiva, a charity organization that's trying to help families in developing countries, not the place for hate speech about the new Youtube layout!!!

    Why are ppl so conservative and mad these days?

  • WOW this is awesome!

  • I like how you can re-lend the money. That way if they make money they can help others.

  • This company is genius.

  • @madisonelectronic Most people in this world are good and given the chance they would rather do coffee than coca.

  • @madisonelectronic hehe no, Pedro will be grateful and realize he can continue with coffee.

  • @Sammieeex3ifly I think you should consider the money spent on charity. But according to kiva.org almost everyone pays back. My lenders have all paid back in time so far.

    Total Amount Lent $375.00 $219.98

    Total Amount Repaid $143.83 $170.86

    Total Amount Lost $0.00 $1.50

  • Pedro will probably find out he can make more money with the coca plant, making you a drug dealer. Then the DEA comes for you, cause you are easier to find than Pedro, who is now dead, killed by the local drug lord, whom he pissed off. Pedros' family moves to the USA and now lives with you and does your laundry. You and your wife go to prison for not paying social security on you cheap labor people. The widow of Pedro sues you, getting your house as damages and lives happily ever after.

  • Whoa, this video really explains the concept nicely!
