【昭和の日本】好景気で"金貸し業"がブームに！借金取りたちも必死！しくじると社内裁判にかけられ… | 1968年

■From the News Transcript The time is the Showa Genroku era. Consumerism is on the rise, leisure activities are expanding, and the desire for money is on the rise. And so a new business has emerged: lending money. This is a credit company. They're now focusing on training professionals. This business relies on flyers, flyers, and more. There are 300 credit companies in Tokyo alone, and it's quietly booming right now. They trust the lender and will lend you between ¥10,000 and ¥50,000 without collateral. If the loan goes bad, the lender is responsible. To recover the lost funds, they sometimes chase the borrower to the racetrack or attack them in the middle of the night while they're sleeping. If they still can't recover the loan, the lender's company will take them to court. Ah, the road to becoming a professional is tough. ■About This Channel We stream footage of Japanese news programs produced in the 1950s-1970s.
