      <description>&lt;b&gt;Nothing is free in this world.&lt;/b&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;b&gt;NOT TRUE.  SCORE is FREE&lt;/b&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;b&gt;SCORE does not give money, BUT they give advice.&lt;/b&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;b&gt;Sometimes Good Advice and it is all FREE.&lt;/b&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;b&gt;You can also take a FREE 26 0nline Seminar at " www.score. org "&lt;/b&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;b&gt;NO Strings attached - LUCKIEST&lt;/b&gt;</description>

      <description>Great posting! It's true...nothing is free in this world. I would be very cautious if something sounded too good to be true....there's always a catch, always some strings attached - - -especially when it comes to money.</description>

      <title>Busting the ‘Free Money’ Myth</title>
      <link>http://smallbusinessonlinecommunity.bankofamerica.com/thread.jspa?messageID=20943&amp;amp;tstart=0#20943</link>
      <description>I recently read a Businessweek article (click here) for entrepreneurs searching for a government grant or no-interest loan to start a business. It may be useful to some here at the forum. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The message is clear: there is no free money. I've been saying that for years, but people don't always believe me. Now I have some proof...&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
There's a myth out there that free government money is available for certain types of businesses or entrepreneurs, like women or minorities. "Like most myths it contains a kernel of truth-the U.S. government does give grants to assist small businesses. Of course, virtually all of that money flows to local governments, state agencies, and nonprofits-not individuals." &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Hope it helps,&lt;br /&gt;
