much smileys, such wow.

here's my advice:
for the first few weeks, don't loan anything to other users unless they have a valid collateral that you can sell for 110% (or more) of their loan amount. in that time look around this section for the no collateral loans and learn gradually from them. after that it's up to you whether or not you want to start giving loans without a collateral or not.

I say this because it is hard to understand the no collateral loans if you're still new on bitcointalk. you'll need to learn how to judge users based on their reputation [1] before you start giving them loans without collateral.

[1] some people disagree with this way of thinking and advises others to always ask for a collateral.

lol don't worry about the smileys, I was just making a joke.  

collateral is some kind of assurance. the borrower will give the collateral to the lender/escrow. and if the borrower is not able to repay the loan the lender have the right to hold/sell the collateral. basically the collateral will be yours if they default.

you can find what kind of collateral is valid and what is not on this post. bitcointalk accounts can also be used as a collateral, but like I said, not everyone agrees with that way of thinking.

oh, and it is advised to use escrow for holding the collaterals.

So collateral is like a solid thing which could be kept as a security correct? and bro I think first i should start with giving low loans ? coz it will be safe for me until i understand, and according to you how much we could make with lending ?

sorry I didn't include "what is collateral" in my previous post. edit now.

yes, you should start by giving low loans just to be safe.
profit in lending comes from from interest so that depends on your rate. most people asks for 10% but TBH the interest can vary based on the amount of a loan. tho I'm not sure if you can get much.

Perform thorough background checks on everyone before lending and always demand a collateral. Check the users trust, scam reports if any, other profiles on the Web etc. Moreover over,  I suggest you get get to know the forum much better since you're activity is low.

When will you start your lending business?,
No offense, but this sounds like " trust me , I am rich and I will never do something bad". 
Sorry, I just want to say what I've been thinking since I saw so many newbie scammers on this forum. I hope you are legit.

I am not asking for trusting me i was asking about how the process works coz i had some spare btc which I am keeping since years so i thought it would be awesome if i could make some from them

[Amph]

you can't run here a good business based on loan with decent collateral, the only good collateral that they will ever offer might be their account, and at least it is something like legendary with plenty of trust it will not cover more than 1 btc

if you want to run something where you lend plenty of bitcoin, it's better to use btjam or like you said creating your own business

Save yourself the hassle and just hold on to them. Do not use BTCJam or any of those lending websites they have a ridiculous default rate from the borrowers. Lending here on Bitcointalk is a waste of time most loans are scams or for .005 amounts that are not worth the effort.

**JUST HODL**

yeah there are some risk even with a++ members, but there are not alternative which are less risky besides this forum, also account as a collateral isn't the best collateral, you'll never be sure of being able to sell the account

BTCjam better than you loaned in this forum. 
Because if you loaned in this forum its have a big risk than BTCjam. 
Or if you like loaned in this forum maybe you just can loaned for Hero Member with good reputation because most Hero Member is a person who has been long in the bitcoin and possibly trustworthy. 

you can minimize the risks significantly by only giving out loans when there's a valid collateral.

How we can trust btcjam what security they provide?

[noel57]

UI will suggest that you spread your bitcoin among different lending network because they help with all the security measure you only give the money when needed and you will get many people willing to borrow.
I suggest the following networks  https://www.bitbond.com, btcjam and https://bitlendingclub.com

Feel free to roll the dice here and there, but not worth it in my opinion. Loaning here is pretty much chump change with a ton of competition.

Check the links below should explain it pretty well 

http://bravenewcoin.com/news/bitlending-to-curb-loan-default-rates/  average interest 12.68% average default 7.91% - so you might make 5% if you pick the lucky ones...or loose non stop
