Bob: OK, please.
Clerk: It is required by the General Lending Rules of our country that the borrowers should have the nationality of our country.
Bob: Yes, I have.
Clerk: What’s the balance of your deposit account at the moment?
Bob: About USD 10,000.
Clerk: What’s your profession?

Clerk: And you have your own driving license?

Clerk: How much do you think you can deposit in your wage account with our bank every month?
Bob: You mean my monthly wage and earnings? About USD 2,000.
Clerk: How much is the car you plan to buy?
Bob: USD 20,000, more or less.
Clerk: So you require about another USD 10,000. If this sum of money could be supplied by the loan from our bank, how would you repay?
Bob: How about in monthly installments of 500 dollars, or 600 dollars at most if required?
