Got a call from an old friend, George Tran.  He IM’d me to say hello and tell me about his newest venture.  He is giving his house away on the NET….  Wow.  I have known George to be very honest and forethright, but this seemed a bit whacky until I read his blog page.  This is actually a very cool idea.  Check it out and join the social network experiment.  Here is a press release I wrote and put out for him.

We can’t sell it, so we’re giving it away.

Well known Internet marketer George Tran of “One Shopping Cart” fame.  Is doing a social network experimanet.

“As an internet marketer, I wanted to try a social network experiment to see if we can have some fun and give away our house to someone who is most worthy of it…and who would cherish the house.

What we want to do is to give away the house to someone who is worthy and, at the same time, see if we can help some non-profit organizations.  Our thought was this: we can ask people to pay $49.95 to register their interest in the house and write or film a story about why they deserve the house, then let the internet community decide who is most worthy.  The family that is voted most worthy by December 23rd, 2008 will receive the house from us as soon as the money clears from PayPal.

Here’s the idea.  We ask for a $49.95 registration fee.  If we receive $300,000, enough to cover our basic expenses so we can pay off the mortgage, any additional money will be divided equally between  Habitat for Humanity, Best Friends Animal Shelter and Citizens for Health.” – George Tran

I have know George for sometme and this is no joke.  Check it out for yourself.  Here is Georges Blog page to check out the deal.  http://freehouse.wordpress.com/we-cant-sell-it-so-were-giving-it-away/

Feed333’s website went down today so I help by making a new one until they could re install the old one at Go Daddy.  I hadn’t worked on websites for awhile so it was quite fun.  I do however want to get out my Commercial Real Estate Newsletter so I will work diligently tomorrow to get it out.  You can see the site at www.prigen.net/feed333.  More importantly I am working on getting sponsors for the event in Los Angeles.  We have the Clippers and Amy Brenneman.  Larry Jones from Feed the Children will also be there.  Please contact me if you would like to help organize or volunteer.  Dec 13th at the Salvation Army location in Los Angeles.  Send me a message or call if you want more info.  Also we are looking for corporate sponsors and sponsors for our food trucks.  For $12,500 you will be providing $50,000 worth of food to the working poor of Los Angeles.  You will get your corporate or any name you choose on the truck and there will be a lot of news coverage.  Last year we were a top story.

Welcome to my new and first blog.  As I am new to blogging I am sure I will screw this up pretty well to start, but hope that I can get good enough to offer great and interesting information.

I work in commercial finance.  I help find funding for various commercial projects.  From time to time I also help investors find other great opportunities.

I am looking for great deals for for my investor friends and also capital to help fund their projects.  I would like to talk to anyone that is interested in the same.

My main passion is working with Humanity Unites Brilliance www.CheckOutHUB.com which is a company that uses network marketing to help fund humanitarian causes around the world.

I have created a few groups on LinkedIn that I hope will help serve a diverse set of entreprenuers.   Check out U.S. Veteran (vets only), Humanity Unites Brilliance (members only), The Commercial Real Estate Professional Investors Network (All Investors or Finance Professionals are welcome), The Professional Success Networking Group (All are welcome).

I will be discussing each of these in further detail later, but for the meantime I would like to get to know and serve everyone better and am looking for others who feel the same way.
