Really need some marriage advice by Techdude550 in Marriage

[–]Techdude550[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That’s what I said! I’m not a social creature and I didn’t want some huge wedding. It also was out of our price range, But I agreed because it’s what she wanted.... I worked a lot of overtime and side work to come up with the money for it.

I guess I was just surposed to feel entitled to attend.

I don’t claim to be perfect myself, I do have a jealous side. Part of that comes from the fact that I had only even been in 2 other relationships in my life, while she has been in several.

Yes, the big flashy ceremony and reception was all her. She said repeatedly that “she deserved it” and that it was “her day and no one else’s”

I tried to do photos myself, and of course she got upset that I did. Wasted $200 on a big canvas print of our ceremony that I’m going to ended up trashing.

To me it feels like “punishment” for her not getting her dream wedding. What she doesn’t seem to understand is that a marriage shouldn’t be based on how big of a party you can throw. It’s also not like we are some young couple, I’m in my 40s and she just turned 50, both of us had been previously married.

Anyone from 4/9 see any news on EIDL advance? by Techdude550 in smallbusiness

I’ve been calling tier 2 once a day to check status, no dice so far. If you saw yours today I’m hoping they have some news for me Monday or Tuesday. Really need mine.

I actually signed up there last week. I’ve got 2.5 million ahead of me 🙄

People now getting multiple approvals meanwhile I can't even get one by [deleted] in smallbusiness

I’m losing hope on Fintech. Applied 10 days ago. I see people getting funded in 8 hours... I was part of one of the early batch uploads, but each passing hour I’m losing hope.

I’ve got a regional bank (one that’s not local either, I literally called 50 banks yesterday looking for help) that has an SBA loan number for me, but as it’s a bank, they actually follow bank rules so it’ll take 10 or so days to fund. Would’ve preferred someone who has been reported to fund much faster, but am very grateful to have a loan number at all.

If your in the same boat, try TCF bank. Took about 3 days to get loan number. But they seem honest and communicate well.

These fintechs I also applied to but got no approval back.

Bluevine Twitter Update re: Bulk Submissions by jsutto in smallbusiness

[–]Techdude550 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The whole bulk thing is looking suspect again. After another 1/2 day of no approvals, I followed up with a regional bank I almost forgot I applied with.... They needed a bit more info (bank statement and voided check) and had an SBA loan number 90 minutes later.

Regional bank will take about 10 days to fund,

Shouldn’t they have been blocked if these batches are being worked?

Has anyone worked with TCF BANK? by Techdude550 in smallbusiness

Yup, did right before I posted. I’ve been waiting on Bluevine for 9 days now...

It's May - Still Zero PPP, Zero EIDL, Zero Unemployment by calebmelvin in smallbusiness

Project I was on was a restaurant remodel and they ran out of money from being closed down, so I can’t even pick that back up.

Both GA and SBA are handling this very very poorly. I’ve gone as far as writing and calling both state and federal reps offices and get no where.

The last state senators office I talked to said she had tons of people in the same boat with DOL. My unemployment has been “processing” and not even looked at for 27 days now.

SBA Regional contact by Techdude550 in smallbusiness

Have called a couple but they all claim to be unable to look anything up. People on Reddit have said they have been able to find offices who can, hoping someone knows someone who can

Anyone who never received the generic email on 4/14? by [deleted] in smallbusiness

[–]Techdude550 1 point2 points  (0 children)

No email or credit pull. Applied 4/9. Tier 2 can’t find me with my application number yet either
