About this video
Out in the blue, a shark patrols—vital, respected. Under strip-mall fluorescents, another “shark” smiles from behind a teller window. This short unpacks payday and title loans—sky-high APRs, collateral traps, fine-print snares—and shows you safer ways to float a cash crunch. Keep the sharks in the ocean, not in your wallet.
