Its been a long road since the first loan in 2006. Since then the $1 billion dollars issued through Prosper went towards helping people fix their debts, pay medical bills, chase their dreams, and much more. The greatest thing about it? That $1 billion came from people who truly wanted to help others’ financial situations, while simultaneously helping themselves.
A pretty incredible accomplishment and announcement for Prosper. Is there still growth to be had in peer lending? I’d say there is, and I think Prosper agrees…
