I was approved for a small business loan, but I could not figure out how to actually get it. I copied and pasted my account information for both Navy Federal and Bank of America. Apparently sometimes the SBA has the bank name weirdly. If you have an account with a bank that was later bought out or just changed its name, you may need to put the original name.
Well, in my case I needed to give the wires routing number, not the electronic one.
This morning I had a $1,000 advance [that I do not need to pay, so people call it a grant] and a $12,900 loan at 3.75% for 30 years. However, that money is for things like rent and payroll. I have not been paying rent on the shed, which I was not using before TPgate, and my agency pays me directly, instead of paying my LLC, and then writing myself a check. You cannot use it to repair, upgrade, or buy new assets.
I didn't realize that those rules applied to the advance [grant], too. I spent the morning making a shopping list: Prehung outswing door, 17 4'x8'x2" Thermasheath foam boards, Locktight adhesive, Great Stuff, and a truck rental for those heavy foam boards. The total, with tax, came to $1,003, which would hopefully be $902.70 with my Veteran's discount.
You can buy a QuickSet doorknob and deadbolt kit for $25. I was about to see how much it would cost to rekey to match the house when I thought that I had better double-check to make sure that I could do any of this.
I thought of B.A. in the 2010 "A-Team" movie where they blow up a semi full of counterfeit money and he shouts "All of this money and I can't spend any of it!"
I cannot find that anywhere. I found the movie on-line, but I do not even know in which language it was.
Mom is finally bored with Hallmark. She had me find something else for her to watch a couple of times yesterday and today I finally put in one of her "Magnum" DVDs.
Hallmark was actually playing Magnum. I put in the same episode, but now she will not be yelling at commercials.
The DVDs have drastically-lower quality. The case says they are SD. I cannot figure out how to make the Sony blue ray player show them properly, it stretches the 4:3 to 16:9--that was a television setting.
Well, I figured out one thing today.
By the way, allegedly you really can fly a tank:
