if I were to lend you a fairly substantial amount of money, and asked for something in writing to prove this transaction had happened?
Background: Very good friend of mine used to have superb credit rating but life happened and she lost her house and went bankrupt.
I have lent her money in the past, and always had it back, with interest, so I have no worries that she won't pay me back. She now needs a new car and said she'd get a loan, but I suspect she won't be able to get one, and offered to get one for her. Surprisingly she's said she would if necessary which I'm happy with. I don't drive so get benefit of her having a car (she'll give me lifts, do a huge shop etc) and never pay her money for petrol etc.
The only thing I'm concerned about is that she's hit by a bus a day after buying said car, her family gets the car and I'm stuck with the loan. I'm sure they'd believe me if I told them about it, but I'd rather have the backup.
I know it's unlikely this scenario would occur, but I just feel I should be sensible about this.
