Prosper is like an “eBay for Money”
• Marketplace for money– Brings together borrowers with people who have money to lend– Administers lending process including payments and collections
• New asset class– Anyone with as little as $50 can lend– Community decides where and why to grant credit
• Leverages power of community– Groups and endorsements provide shame, acquisition and support
