If you’re interested in investing in peer-to-peer lending, Lending Club is offering $40 to new investors. I’m not sure how long it will last, but worth a try if you have been thinking about it.
I’m not sure if this will work, but here’s the referral link that they send in the email. That should get you the $40. If not, I can manually send the email from their system as well.
Lending Club Link for $40 for new referrals
As far as I know, I don’t get anything out of this, so I’m not trying to make a buck or anything. (note that the Lending club banners on this site are affiliate links however, so I will earn a referral fee if you click through one of those. But, I don’t think you’ll get the $40.)
Part of the reason that I’ve been tinkering with Lending Club is that they have a secondary market for the loans. What that means is that I can bypass the restrictions on state of residence and actually invest in a few loans again. I’m transferring the money that I transferred out of Prosper.com into my Lending Club account and giving the secondary market a try.
