• Trapped by fast cash: How one woman escaped the payday loan debt spiral (bankrate.com) — A Spring Hill resident describes how rising living costs pushed her into high-interest online payday loans and a growing spiral of debt. She eventually escaped with help from her father, credit counseling, and a stricter budget, and now warns neighbors to exhaust every other option before turning to payday lenders, especially online offers that seem like quick relief.
