Retirement Loans article useful?

[hilarybowman]

Hi: Im a financial writer and I was wondering if you could give your opinion on my new article and if it can be useful to anyone?

Thanks for your opinions!

It's
Understanding Loans For Retired People

[Will]

Hi Hilary.

Welcome to Wise Bread. We generally frown upon people starting threads for the sole purpose of promoting a single article. This is especially the case when the article is hosted on a website dedicated to a commercial purpose (as opposed to a personal blog). That's why I moved your post to the promotions forum.

However, I encourage you to try again. Consider starting a discussion about retirement lending. Bring up specific issues that we can discuss. And if during the course of that discussion you find that your article offers answers to questions raised by other forum members, then feel free to quote your article and link to it.

I have to warn you, though. We're pretty tough on loan websites around here.

Oh ok, no problem. And will take note of your recommendation next time

I'll jump in and comment on the loan article. Who is the audience: friends of retired people or retired people? If it is the retired, I'd speak to the audience as if they were wise -- they have probably taken out loans before and know the basics.

Actually, the article is for all people: young and old. But I'll remember your recommendation.

Thank you!

My son is 24 years old college student and he wants to begin studying for human resource management. I am a low income employee of a small company and I can’t afford that much money for his education. So I am looking for a government grant or education grant or something like that. One of my friends recommended to me that a government grant would be the best way to go but I don't know where to begin because most of these companies tend to take your money and lead you in circles. Please help me.

Has your son visited the financial aid office of his college? They should be able to give him information or point him in the right direction. If he is not yet enrolled, he can still visit the office and see what they have to offer him in the form of financial support.

Also, does your company offer any sort of employee assistance or college scholarships? I know that may be rare for a small company but I thought I'd mention it.

Here is a link to the grants section of FAFSA (Free Application for Federal Student Aid): http://studentaid.ed.gov/PORTALSWebA...ish/grants.jsp
