Say you guys in my shoes what would you do first ?

LOL its funny people can put others in an others shoes and (seemingly) know every system/person.If snake oil fixes an ailment go for it...if a newspaper column, text book, word of mouth, an "experienced" investor or what ever "educated" person &/or program looks good & helps get a deal &/or exposed to something like BP...doing deals etc then why bash it?

Even if you are just sharing what it's been like in your shoes up to now.

They are hard to come by , you have to put your self in a mentor shoe and think what can Everett do to better my business ?

If a broker doesn't give you financials after you sign the NDA/CA then I'd say something is fishy or you're dealing with a "shoe box" owners and that can make the financing obtaining a lot harder because you can't prove to the bank anything.
