Greetings all,

I attended a siminar today put on by the local Small Business Developement
Center (SBDC) concerning SBA backed loans for existing and emerging
businesses. Anyone had any recent dealings with either of these groups?
The loan app. they walked us through was very simple, they seemed to be
giving us good info on how to fill them out, what we needed to have set up
right now and in the near future. I did not fill mine out since I am still
in the info gathering stage, but they said that the time is almost up for
these "Express loans". Just my luck.

So, if anyone can give me their opinion I would be most appreciative.

Regards,
Jim C Roberts

I went to a scheduled meeting with SBA and I wouldn't get involved with them
for anything. I went expecting some good, sound business advice on a
venture I had in mind. All they wanted to do is loan me money with my good
credit and signature on the dotted line. A supreme scam, in my opinion.

I asked for business guidance and it fell on deaf ears.

SBDC usually has business students from a nearby college working with the
center. (If not running the center.)

The help that you receive could be top notch text book help. But keep in
mind it is "text book" help. Most people involved are either students or
from the world of academics. The computer, accounting and metrics should be
tops, but the overall business ideas may be suspect.

Watch stuff like interest rate and how it is calculated over time... Some of the
Government loans for Schools - I heard were way out there and crazy. Kickback
to the
schools... kick in the head the student... Then there is Fannie Mae.....

Caution.
