This week I touched off something powerful when I began to approach some "debt resolution" companies. Make no mistake about it...DEBT is big business!
I also have a notice up about my need for a transit assistant at Minnesota State University...I am offering a small but significant cash bonus to anyone who can provide transportation to the local land records office so I can see about matching up local mortgage/cashflow notes with some private investors.
Also, it is possible (just barely) that I may be able to qualify for a loan from the federal Small Business Administration..especially since I now have easily documentable proofs (this website, for one) of having started SEVERAL businesses.
One thing I have learned about debt and risk...no matter how big the number, it is still just a number. The trick is in keeping your risk PROPORTIONAL to your available assets.
Real professionals are not bothered by the word "no."
EVERY contact can be made more valuable, even when a proper "fit" doesn't necessarily arise immediately. Your most valuable question at such times may be, "well, do know anyone else who might be interested?"
(Kim Klaver Principle).
How did I make my own luck in this situation?
I INTENTIONALLY set myself up to do TOO MUCH work to fail.
(Hello fellow R.A.H. Fans!)
Time has worked in my favor all along...chances are you won't be seeing a lot of the in-between stages and "failures" in my work.
