- NatashaCall, on 12/13/2007, -0/+7Seems a bit big-headed to me...not at all like helping the developing world to actually move ahead...just taking advantage of them. I see how the need could arise, but if they don't have money to put into the bank, it will do one of two things...1. fail, 2. they will offer credit and the "poor" will become even more so.

- nitsnipe, on 12/13/2007, -0/+2Considering how well informed and connected to the world ppl are there, IPOs on ATM may just catch on as the new form of gamnling.
- isntreal, on 12/13/2007, -1/+1That's a funny point, but I don't think people are all that well informed.
- mCanada, on 12/13/2007, -0/+1***** him... prosper.com micro credit , loan's between people (and prosper takes a cut). better interest rates. Kiva etc... The banks have screwed everything up.
