		<description>Milton, 

Check out a few of the articles we have on &lt;a href=&quot;http://articles.bplans.com/category/financing-a-business&quot; rel=&quot;nofollow&quot;&gt;how to finance your business&lt;/a&gt; . I would also strongly suggest making an appointment to see your local SCORE or Small Business Development Center. They will have a lot of information on available loans, grants and funding in your area.

		<description>Thanks for  the piece, specially the last part

&quot;The worst possible time to not have the support of friends and family is when your business is in trouble. You risk losing friends, family, and your business at the same time.&quot;</description>
