    The short answer is no: absolutely not. Payday loans have been shown to quite literally be designed to keep borrowers in an endless cycle of debt.

    I would check this video out:

    If you have any financial sense you'll do without rather than take a loan with a higher rate of interest than a regular bank loan or overdraft. The people behind these loans are essentially loan sharks feeding on the misery of the financially illiterate. Don't let yourself get sucked in.

    I don't know where you are based but you should see if there is a government or nonprofit agency that offers free (emphasis on "free") credit counseling. Stay away from the ones that charge fees. Here in the U.S. there are several such sources and they specialize in helping people get out of the various financial traps and pitfalls that are out there. As with all such situations, the sooner you start to learn about how to get yourself out of a lousy financial position, the easier/faster it will be to do so.

    Payday loans are good whenever anyone need money for their personal need without providing any guarantor.

    I have a friend who works for a debt collector and says inter generational financial illiteracy and pay day loans are the start point for most of the people they deal with. A $750 loan is never paid off and grows to $15k over time and with no end in sight.

    Pay day loans are most deffinelty the worst kind of loan you could ever get in your life, they have astronomical interest rates apr. If you got in to deep with these loans and defaulted you could lose thousands for a loan of a few hundred. I would deffinelty look to getting yourself back in the straight and narrow I understand it can be very hard to do this but you must remember live in your means .. don't have what u can't afford.

    Thanks
