SYNTAX
   [##:##] Command : consider loan <loan #> accept|decline|postpone

This  command allows you to consider accepting a loan offered by another coun-
try.

The program will list the various terms of the loan  under  consideration  and
ask  for  your  decision  as  to whether to accept the terms, decline them, or
postpone making a decision.

If you accept a loan, the money is immediately credited to  your  account  and
the  time  period  of the loan starts.  If at the time of your acceptance, the
lender does not have sufficient funds the size of the loan will be  diminished
to fit the lender's cash on hand.

Loan offers are withdrawn if not accepted within a number of days equal to the
proposed loan's duration.

Warning:  When the terms of a loan are printed out, take note of the due date;
if you do not pay by the due date the interest will double  and  you  will  be
subject to "collection", (see "info collect").
