People like to lend money for their different requirements and many times it's not Easier to get that from bank because of so many formalities so they borrow money from private lenders and they charge higher interest.
Do you think it's a good business?

To become a money lender, you will need to have a basic understanding of finance, accounting and money management. You will also need to be familiar with local and federal laws regarding money lending. Depending on your jurisdiction, you may need to obtain a license or registration to start a money lending business. Additionally, you will need to set up a secure system to manage the loan applications, loan terms and repayment of funds. You may also need to have sufficient capital to cover any loans that you provide.

One of my aunts side hustle is letting policemen borrow money from her and she gives interest when asking them to pay. She has been doing this for many years now.

That business is good if you can collect the money you lent to people. There are some very bad payer out here. I have seen a few people fail to collect and end up closing shop.

One of the biggest risks I will never like to face again in money lending is having a default borrowers. This can result in the loss of both the loaned amount and any interest or fees associated with the loan.

It is a good business but i cannot be able to do it. It comes with a lot of risk . I don't have the strength to be chasing defaulters from one place to another . One of my friend is working for a loan company and he use to shed tears after a lot of unpleasant experience with defaulters.

I heard this line of business is rather lucrative, there is someone who recently finished building a house in my area, rumors has it that he is into lending of money. Its lucrative but i do not think i have the strength to start drawing people to pay back.

Inwoukd only borrow from families and close friends. I can't go to a private lender to borrow money. They are not civil like banks in case of a default in repayment.
