What I am trying to do is build a musical dynasty such as an modern day Motown. I'm a very motivated and confident young man that doesn't have the funding to pursue this at the pace I'm ready to pursue. I know that if I could find a partner to finance the debut product that I have....There would be no chance of failure. I just need the money to be able to go to big labels, radio stations, music Television stations that I could make the "Jerseydrummerboi Ent" Brand a success. I have visions of being the next Sean Combs. Music is my life and I'm ready to make it my career and make big moves. If you are intersted please go to Myspace.com/jerseyboilyrical to hear my music.

And that's only half of it. Fortunately I've managed to pay most of that off by paying $10-15K in debt payments per month for the past few years, but having used just about every sort of debt financing known to man I will never use debt to finance a business again--EVER. Remember, debt disappears as fast as you have expenses, but is paid off only as fast as you have profits.

For example, set $1000 in a seperate account and use it to guarantee a line of credit. Draw on the line to pay invoices and pay back the line within terms. While you are charged interest, the rates are low enough that its a relatively cheap way to "buy" good credit Another way of establishing good credit is to go to a bank and guarantee a small line of credit, using it to pay debts rather than your own cash.
