January 22nd marks the beginning of the Year of the Rabbit 🐇. Soooo, positive things must be coming, for us and our friends. It's Nimble's year - after all... As well as featured in our branding and ads, the Rabbit is known to be quick, skillful, kind, patient, and very responsible. Just like us!
🔮 Predictions for the Rabbit Year include: rewards for recent sacrifices (good karma’s finally picking up the slack- thank you 🙌), seeds sown back in the day will bear fruit as sweet as the heart’s intent, and a little luck 🍀 is likely in store for risk takers too. Apparently, it’s not only the perfect time to launch new business ventures, but also, to give in to your mother-in-law’s relentless requests for children (😅 don’t shoot the messenger, we’re paraphrasing).
Overall, sounds like a cracking year, eh?! But kind of expensive too, if we’re being honest. If leaving your success to chance in 2023 is not your thing - consider rewriting what’s in the stars with Nimble. Our Small or Personal Loans, $300 - $25,000, and AnyTime^ revolving line of credit, could help keep ‘new you’ nimble this year.*
Whilst our first competition this Year of the Rabbit was ‘water under the bridge’ on Sunday 19 February, 🤔 we’re still chuckling at the three things some of you would take on your paddleboard!
