Is there a way to get more than $10k from the SBA for the EIDL loan? Not complaining, 10k is 10k, just wondering as I am CERTAIN you've done your research. Congrats on the successes. Onward!
EIDL grant is $1k per employee as calculated by the SBA. We have seven employees; they decided we meant "five" because fuck you, that's why. EIDL loan is a whole 'nuther critter. There are also random-ass grants out there, but my experience is that they are subject to a great deal more scrutiny. The EIDL and PPP money are pallets of cash in the Arabian desert.
I got picked up from the airport by a vet once. Had one leg. I generally talk to my Lyft drivers if they're talkative; it's been a marvelously illuminating view into the lives of others. This guy lost his leg in Iraq because of course he did. That didn't really haunt him, though. We ended up talking about the night that he and his squad guarded a pallet of hundos. They all knew they could take some. They all didn't. And he's driving Lyft, and fifteen years later the life decision he still replayed was "what do you do with a gun and a pallet full of hundos?"
How do we make sure we don't lose Iowa how do we make sure we don't lose Iowa how do we make sure we don't lose Iowa also how do we hurt blue states how do we hurt blue states how do we hurt blue state.The SBA has been so overwhelmed by demand that it is now allowing only agricultural interests to submit applications, as it works through an enormous backlog. Key Republican senators had been pushing hard for farmers and agriculture companies to be able to tap the program, and they are now being prioritized over other prospective borrowers.
