Your response shows you are one class act!!! You have my respect.

Cbs - You win the “sharpest tack in the box” award. I mean that in a respectful way!
Going to have to respectfully disagree with you on all accounts. What is no longer the norm is funding up to 100k. Most FI's are 5k or less.
as long as its all in a respectful way  ::)
