Niels Bohr Joke
An American scientist once visited the offices of the great Nobel Prize-winning physicist, Neils Bohr, in Copenhagen and was amazed to find that over his desk, a horseshoe was nailed to the wall.
The American said with a nervous laugh, "Surely you don't believe that horseshoe will bring you good luck, do you, Professor Bohr?" Bohr chuckled. "I believe no such thing, my good friend. Not at all. I am scarcely likely to believe in such foolish nonsense. However, I am told that a horseshoe will bring you good luck whether you believe in it or not!"
Niels Bohr fled the Naxis in 1943 and eventually worked with the Americans on the famous Manattan Project.
Where's the Inflation?
Despite a recovering economy and an amazingly low 4.4% unemployment rate, the Producer Price Index (PPI) for June was a measly 0.1%. What this means for you is that the U.S. economy is the most stable that it has ever been in your lifetime.
Were you thinking about making a big investment in your business? Go for it!
Old Snake Joke
An old snake goes to see his doctor. "Doc, I need something for my eyes... can't see well these days." The doc fixes him up with a pair of glasses and tells him to return in two weeks. The snake comes back in two weeks and tells the doctor he's very depressed. Doc says, "What's the problem? Didn't the glasses help you?" "The glasses are fine, doc. I just discovered I've been living with a water hose the past two years!"
Poor Guy. Ouch.

Business Loans Not Secured By Real Estate
I'm talking here about unsecured business loans, equipment loans, leases, inventory loans, factoring, accounts receivable financing, asset-backed lines of credit, etc.
The reason you want to get into the business of brokering business loans is because such loans close in 10 to 14 days, NOT three months.
C-Loans.com is now offering business financing. Please click here if you are trying to pace a business loan not secured by real estate.
Attorney Joke
A lawyer was on vacation in a small farming town. While walking through the streets on a quiet Sunday morning, he came upon a large crowd gathered by the side of the road. Going by instinct, the lawyer figured that there was some sort of auto collision. He was eager to get to the injured parties but couldn't get near the car. Being a clever sort, he started shouting loudly, "Let me through! Let me through! I am the son of the victim." The crowd made way for him. Lying in front of the car was a donkey.
We're Now Making Business Purpose Rental Home Loans in
Other States Too

In addition to California, Blackburne & Sons will now consider non-owner-occupied home loans in Washington as well.
Because of licensing issues, we cannot make home loans in any other state; but we will make individual commercial loans or blanket residential loans (5+ houses) nationwide.
Got a nationwide commercial deal or a business purpose, non-owner-occupied residential deal in California or one of the above states? Please call your loan officer:

Final Funny
Every Sunday, a little old lady placed $1,000 in the collection plate. This went on for weeks until the priest, overcome with curiosity, approached her. "Sister, I couldn't help but notice that you put $1,000 a week in the collection plate," he noted. "Why yes," she replied, "every week my son sends me money, and what I don't need I give to the church." "That's wonderful, how much does he send you?" asked the priest. "Oh, $2,000 a week." said the old lady. "Your son is very successful, what does he do for a living?" questioned the priest. "He is a veterinarian," she answered. The impressed priest said, "That is a very honorable profession. Where does he practice?" "Well," said the lady, "he tells me he has one cat house in Kansas City and another in Dallas."
