A recent study by Pew Charitable Trusts shows that most payday loans are being used to pay for every day expenses, not unexpected medical bills, education expenses, or emergency break-down costs as the payday loan companies like us to believe.

If you are struggling to pay your basic living expenses, contact a debt settlement attorney who can help you get rid of excess bills without incurring the exorbitant interest rates of payday loans.
