In a system of Riba, how do you protect yourself?

Re: In a system of Riba, how do you protect yourself?

So how can we discuss when no one even understands the substance of Riba. Well since no one came forward I'll throw something out to begin with.

Question for the thread opener. When you say how can we avoid interest do you mean how we can chose Islamic alternatives in the society we live in or avoid it all together?
