I would not even think about how hard it would have been juggling the grant stuff with a new startup unless I had a bunch of startup investment money. Usually the grants are for build out only, operational stuff is not included. For example, we pay at least $25k a year for auditors and accountants because of the grant. Not to mention we hired a bookkeeper just to keep track of government paperwork dealing with the grant. Neither of those are fundable expenses. -- Best regards, Mark mailto:m...@mailmt.com <mailto:m...@mailmt.com> Myakka Technologies, Inc. www.MyakkaTech.com <http://www.MyakkaTech.com> Proud Sponsor of the Myakka City Relay For Life http://www.RelayForLife.org/MyakkaCityFL Please Donate at http://main.acsevents.org/site/TR/RelayForLife/RFLFY12FL?team_id=1030009&pg=team&fr_id=37555 ------ Tuesday, January 6, 2015, 9:23:29 PM, you wrote: TB> Ha ha what are the big problems with them?

I think Travis Hayes said in his speech at AF one year that a good
accountant and a good lawyer are both critical.
