1) What was the biggest surprise for you in the reading?
I was surprised to read that a business could have such high growth even though its prospective customers are relatively poor.
2) Identify one part of the reading that was confusing to you.
Initially, I was uncertain about what exactly microfinancing is. It wasn't until later in the article that the author described it in depth enough for me to get a better understanding.
3) If you were able to ask the author two questions, what would you ask? Why?
Why is microfinancing not a more popular business activity around the world?
How much of an impact do cultural barriers have on business at the bottom of the pyramid?
4) Was there anything you think the author was wrong about?
Other than the confusion about microfinancing, I felt the author's piece was very informative and entertaining. I am relatively uninformed on the topic but I appreciate the great read overall.
