Family Emergency Required Pinole Title Loan
Just when I thought things couldn’t be any more difficult, my son needed braces after a trip to the dentist. Great, another thing I couldn’t afford thanks to the recession in California. This was going to put us over the edge of our budget, and I had no way of paying for the braces. Worse than that, I wasn’t able to get a loan at my bank in Pinole because of my history of bad credit. Banks in Rodeo, Hercules, and El Sobrante don’t have loans for people with bad credit either, but my new car title loans company does. In fact, they’re so great I got to keep my car while I got approved for the title loan because they just hold the car title for collateral. We got cash on the spot an hour after we were approved, and it was going to be more than enough to fully pay for my son’s new braces. I’d do anything for my son, and now we just have to sacrifice so that I can pay the title loan back, and help improve my credit at the same time, in the next several months.
