Living paycheck-to-paycheck is a reality for most. Even the celebs can relate. Chrissy Metz, star of This Is Us revealed that on the day she auditioned for her role, she had only 81 cents in her bank account and was unsure if she would have enough gas to get there.
Most of Us Live Paycheck-to-Paycheck
And she’s not alone. A report showed that 4 out of 5 workers are counting down to payday to make ends meet. And 25% of the working population reported they were unable to stretch their funds until their next payday.
When your cash starts to dwindle, and you cut out as much discretionary spending as you can, you still may be faced with impossible decisions. Do you buy groceries or fill your gas tank?
When you’re holding down a full-time job, chances are you’re just waiting for payday to release the money you have already earned. But sometimes, you just can’t wait. Sometimes, living is a day-to-day challenge, and you need access to your funds more frequently than every two weeks.
Payday Loans are a Slippery Slope
That’s why payday loans have become so popular 12 million Americans rely on them. But at a 400% APR, payday loans can be a gateway to falling into a perpetual cycle of borrowing.
The folks at Earnin thought that predatory financial models like the payday loans model were unfair. So, they took matters into their own hands and decided to offer an alternative.
