Wait a minute. The money they don't have, but lend anyway...

That's an asset too!!?

Now, if they don't have it,...well, since they didn't borrow it, they must not be charged any interest on it. So, when they lend this phantom money, they keep the whole fee...all the interest.

That's like a slush fund!

I could maybe see some problems down the road with this sort of thing. I think.

I'll have to think about it.
