[00:00.31] | “Someone" is a loan shark |
[00:01.93] | You give him your benefit card as security and he gives you a loan |
[00:06.58] | On the day your benefit arrives, he gives you back the card |
[00:09.88] | And you go to the post office to get your money, repaying him the interest |
[00:14.57] | It's a modern version of Shylock's business model |
[00:18.03] | Usury is alive and well and living in Scotland |
[00:22.77] | These are some pages from the loan book of a Glasgow loan shark |
[00:27.03] | And it's kind of interesting to see how the business model works |
[00:29.61] | You lend out maybe £10 to someone and you expect to be paid back £12.50 at the end of the week |
[00:36.29] | That's 25% a week |
[00:38.88] | But if you work that out at an annual rate it comes to 11 million percent |

[00:00.31] | 这些人就是放高利贷者 |
[00:01.93] | 你把社保卡给他做担保,他就放贷给你 |
[00:06.58] | 等到补助金发放的那一天,他把卡还给你 |
[00:09.88] | 然后你去邮局领取补助金,把利息偿还给他 |
[00:14.57] | 这是现代版的夏洛克商业模式 |
[00:18.03] | 高利贷在苏格兰可谓生生不息 |
[00:22.77] | 这几张纸来自是格拉斯哥一位高利贷者的合同书 |
[00:27.03] | 了解一下这种商业模式还是很有趣的 |
[00:29.61] | 你如果将10英镑借给某人,一周后偿还时,就得到12.5英镑 |
[00:36.29] | 也就是25%的周利息 |
[00:38.88] | 可是按照年利率来算的话 就是百分之一百一十万 |
