Tempted by Prosper

by mapgirl on August 25, 2006

I have a Prosper.com account. I put a little money in it, but not enough to put a bid out. I am putting a little more money in it, primarily out of curiosity. I wonder if this thing really works. If it does, I think I’d like to put more longer term savings funds there.

Yes. I know. I should be focused on paying down debt. But I think I’m on a good track to do that. (At least on paper/Quicken I am.) I am thinking about different ways to save my money and get a good return on it. I’ve lost my taste for stock investing for now, but something about Prosper’s concept is really appealing.

So I figure I’ll put a little more into Prosper. Give it a whirl and see what comes out. Couldn’t be much worse than watching a portfolio lose 75% of its value during the dot-com crash. (Yep, but it wasn’t a lot in dollars.)
