    As i remembered you go to a truck dealer ask for credit, get letter of denial, get letter to sba, sba guarantee 75% of loan through any bank. That is your grant!!

    If you're a "minority" there are endless grants available to you to start pretty much any type of business you would like.

    It is a government grants that you don't have to pay back it is for a small business grants to get you started B you need to figure out out how much you well need to do that like for me I'll need 200k or so that is a truck trailer own authority an so on it takes time to do this it's it's not a quick process once the paperwork gets all done and filed and sent to the government the government will either deny you or accept your proposal for your business

    Uncle Sams Helicopter money; Oh, yeah, I've heard of that!
    Similar to the 200 million of our taxpayer money
    sent to Cambodia for "gender studies."

    Nothings free, son. Nothing. Ever.
    Someone worked for the money in that Grant, not you; but someone.
    For 250 K - I would think it was a lot of "someones."
    I really hope you can apply and receive every penny of it, really.
    More power to you, that kind of money in govt. - if they drop it, they don't even bother to bend down to pick it up.
    So....Let me help you.
    A) - Details; more than needed - on every point you can think of.
    B) - Get someone financially savvy to review your plan, looking at angles you will list to reduce your expenses.
    C) - Have a Engineer or Lawyer you know review your plan, tell them to look at it as if you were out to deny my Application.
    He will give you - 1,2,3, and 4 reasons or problems he finds.
    Take these 4 points like a blueprint, and fix each error,or omission.
    D) - Mail me 100 bucks when you get it; remember, nothings free.
