That entirely depends on the terms of the loan.

Short term low interest? Buy some stocks that might go up more than the interest.

Long term low interest? Buy a spread of land and breed heirloom hogs and fancy ingredients and sell them to fancy restaurants and dumb yuppies and dinks.

But if the rate is over 9% you can fuck off.

    Smart, I would do something similar, except was thinking ducks depending on the area. Pig farming seems less profitable.

    People complain about pigs but I found them pretty easy to care for. But if you’re going for a niche market you need a gimmick and heirloom breeds like the Berkshire and Kune Kune can get a fairly good price for being fancy.

    Plus they are way less needy than The Other White Meat in terms of shelter and care, and they taste waaaaay better and give you more delicious lard.
