honestly this guy sort of bothers me, since when is being a banker + charging interest such a freckin noble thing.

I have no doubt his program has helped many people and don't mean the chap any disrespect, but they are making money off this, so I tend to not place him in the saint category that the media does.

When you're providing an important service to people that no one else is interested in serving.

kiva.org doesn't charge interest, has this guy done micro-credit on a much larger scale than them to earn the Nobel?
