Question Better borrowing from a friend or a lender?

Looking for support for my medicine studies, with almost no money, my friend passed me on this article about certaing benefits of asking for money to a lender http://www.badcreditloanservices.com...nsecured_loan/

and also this other about avoiding debt http://www.badcreditloanservices.com..._accumulating/ ?

Now with so many options to take in mind, dont know what to do..

I think maybe its more uncomfortable to borrow from friends..


Any advice would be that much appreciated!!

Is this in the UK? Can't you take out a student loan that you pay back once you start earning more than £15,000 a year? That's what I plan to do anyway because I have no money whatsoever.

This article is from a Usa company, but I guess its pretty much the same for Uk.
I've read now that in certain cases you can get some help from government, always according to http://www.badcreditloanservices.com...consolidation/
