> no bank will lend you money to pay rent

I'm pretty sure every bank will do this, in the form of a credit card.

Which bank allows you to take >10 years to pay it off? For less than 5% (over inflation) annual interest?

I’ve never seen an option to pay rent with a credit card. Cash, check, money order, or cashier check have been options I’ve seen.

Credit cards will advance you cash that you can use for whatever you want.
