Secret Finance

Charles T asked:


I am planning on going to graduate school and get my mba. I have been building and developing appartment buildings. I am thinking about changing careers and possibly going into investment banking. Is it diffiuclt to switch if you have no financial analyst expierence or previous Investment Banking analstst background. IB has alyways sounded interesting to me. But I know how difficult it is to get into. It is like a old boys club and extremely difficult now thesedays to transition into if you have no expierence or interships in from college.

Hello,

I have a small residential and commercial cleaning business that I am looking to expand. I have been shopping around for financing through traditional lenders, but due to my 518 FICO score and millions of charge-offs, I can’t get fianancing. I have applied to a few non-profits in the state that I live in. I have also been pitching my case to some friends. I don’t have any family that can help. They all have bad credit and so do much of my friends. I really do not know anyone with cash on hand either. I have been looking into getting an angel investor or a venture capitalist, but I do not know if that’ll work. I’ve posted an ad on Prosper and I never get responses. Again, I think that this is due to my bad credit. I am seriously running out of ideas. I have 15 months invested in this and I do NOT want to give up. Does anyone have any suggestions or can anyone suggest a place that can help me? I know I need to fix my credit, but I need the money to do it. Please, please, help!
