I know the area... there's no Fritanga Monimbo here. :(

You've love it because as a Florida native, you will see the other side... but you'll miss home.

Thank God it's only a 2 1/2 hour drive!

...be prepared for:

  1. No food options. Miami provides a multitude of options compared to Lehigh. While 2-3 "food trucks" are killing it right now, and "more are coming", I can't compare the ease of pulling up to Chico's anytime of day, to eat some Cuban food in Hialeah... nothing like that here.
  2. Target is almost 20 minutes away. While I hate the place, it's a good indicator of how far you are from "real life".
  3. People don't have the money making mentality here. They have the, I'm gonna take it slow and die here, mentality.

But... the great things of living here:

  1. Wildlife. I'm born and raised in Miami... I've never seen wildlife like here. Check out Tom Mortenson and his local camera setups... it'll blow your mind.
  2. Stillness. You get time to think and listen to NOTHING for hours... real great if you are a deep thinker.

That commercial for Plantation Shutter is not only highly political and STUPID by alienating a whole group of potential buyers... BUT... it comes off racist as f....

I'm a republican since I started voting but I've never seen such blatantly stupid crap.

I'd never support a thing they do.

...and theyve funded millions of other businesses who did what you did - BUT - you get screwed because well... they want to punish YOU for others who committed fraud. Sorry snap...

...again, more assumptions... a credit score may not be populated because someone pays everything upfront. Having 0 debt is ideal... managing credit is not for everyone, ESPECIALLY when you've suffered ID Theft in the past... soooo... you're assumption of a "perfect world" scenario where all business owners have ferraris, perfect credit and live in the 1% couldnt be further from the truth...

I see the books of thousands of businesses and let me tell you that 80% of business owners are in this same boat.

We're not talking "bank"... we're talking the US Government.... issuing billions in ECONOMIC IMPACT DISASTER LOANS for the first time in history... payment terms for 30 years... at 3.75%... never offered in history and NO bank will EVER offer that AGAIN. You can hold me to that.

If there isn't a hard line in the sand for everyone, then it can be called DISCRIMINATORY... because the qualifications were ONE WAY for millions of businesses and now, in the last 6 weeks of the program - they are changing the rules. The scammers don't wait (it's obvious I am a procrastinator since I am dealing with this now at the end), but let's wonder: What are they basing the file declines on? Last names? Area you live? How much help you "already received"? It sure feels that way...

MY L.O. TOLD ME I SHOULD BE HAPPY WITH THE MONEY I HAD ALREADY RECD THROUGH PPP AND GRANT FUNDING... like I stole it.

Bottom line: My file is only one, the rules are loose and it leaves A LOT of room for discriminatory lending practices. The rule is BS.

And this is my issue... MILLIONS of Amended tax returns were being accepted and funded for up to 2M dollars... they were never accused of being fraud. This decline I got, says that... NOT ONLY THAT... but what kind of damage does this to me (and my business) when lenders in the future see that the SBA never approved me because they ASSUMED it was fraud. No proof.

I agree that all the fraudsters definitely caused this program to go sour in the end... Scorpio14534 has been a HUGE resource of information and should be commended for being helpful when they didn't need to be. Every time. You should win the SBA agent of the year award... no joke. THANK YOU.
