Acquiring a loan or lending money both go from good to bad only when discipline is lacking. Acquiring a loan takes a lot of discipline to be able to pay religiously and preventing oneself from acquiring multiple loans that will put him to being incapable of paying. Same thing goes when lending money. Discipline in managing the lending system plays a vital role in making sure that the money will not go to the wrong hands. Scrutinizing people to lend the money to and checking their background and capacity to pay will make secure the return of the money borrowed. Also, a written agreement or contract should always be presented to have a strong hold to the person who borrowed and may serve as an evidence when things go wrong.
