I hope this gets through - neither Incredimail nor O/E is working
I reckoned that the leigustaðr was a place where money was kept
for safety and Gunnar was - quite foolishly - IMO - thinking of
giving Unn what she needed.
When she said she did not want a loan I'm afraid I found myself thinking
"At last the silly girl is showing sense" never the less - I think that
Hrut is likely to hand on to what ever he has

I´m still not clear on this.
Does Gunnar mean that as he collects the interest and/or principal from those to whom he has loaned money, he will give the interest paid and/or principal repaid to Unn? Or that he will give Unn the money she needs from that which he has set aside for lending? Or finally, as the translation below and MM/HP´s suggest, that he will give her the money she needs out of the money that he has already loaned out to his borrowers? Gunnar may say he is not a good lawyer but, if he is suggesting the latter, I also think his accounting skills need a bit more work too.

"Place where one has some debt (owed to one),
whence one collects loans or rents."

haf þú fé svá mikit, sem þú þarft, er ek á á leigustöðum

dvs. benyt du saa meget somdu behøver af hvad jeg har udestaaende,
tilgode hos Folk

"i.e. use as much as you need from what claims I have outstanding,
owed to me by people."
