 At one point and time I had sent you a business plan. Do you still have this?</description>

      <description>Yes. Our cash flow projection includes the ever changing diesel fuel prices.&lt;br /&gt;
Our currnet fuel prices are set approximately .50 cents higher than what they are now.This is a preventative measure taken just in case the fuel prices suddenly take a rise during our daily operations. Our per mile charge stays the same and is updated daily. &lt;br /&gt;
With all companies, there are other preventative measures and emergency procedures that our company will follow should the inevitable happen. From hurricanes to accidents, from sick employees to those who quit.&lt;br /&gt;
We will not sign on or lease on to other companies at a predescribed rate. It would take too long for fuel surcharges to trickle down to our business. We haul based on what the load pays.&lt;br /&gt;
In Florida, the load pays over our per mile cost to run.&lt;br /&gt;
It is all in Florida's supply and demand.&lt;br /&gt;
The more people need the more they are willing to pay.&lt;br /&gt;
Remember: Everything that you have today, at one point, came by truck.</description>

      <description>My name is James Adams. I am starting 2 projects at once and need some help.&lt;br /&gt;
Project #1 is called JASTB Trucking Company. I am seeking funding in the amount of $52,000.&lt;br /&gt;
The funding will go to purchasing equipment and personnel, fuel and a lease on a large building for our warehouse.&lt;br /&gt;
I have entertained the thought of securing private investors and am having no luck!!&lt;br /&gt;
I have contacted attorneys, the SBA ( small business administration) the U.S. Securities Administration, family and friends, the grants.gov website and many other sources.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I know $50,000 for a trucking company's startup is'nt much, but can't seem to find anyone to help. My personal credit score is around a 570 and I am trying to make it better, but gas prices are starting to hurt.&lt;br /&gt;
I do have a business plan available.&lt;br /&gt;
Any input???&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Project #2 is seen in my profile.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Both are very worthy.</description>
