I was always skeptical of claims that the poor always pay back. It took the work of Muhammad Yunus with Grameen and microfinance to change my perspective but still I had little first hand evidence. Here’s an insightful screenshot of my own Kiva loans this year - every single one paid back - a picture paints a thousand words don’t you think?
