Obscure Information Overload!
I've seen ads for Lesko's books for years. When I opened a coffee house and needed some financing, I figured I'd give this book a shot and really find out what was available to me.

The book is certainly full of information on loans, grants, government assistance, etc.... unfortunately, only a small fraction of that info pertains to any one particular person. All of the info is broken down by what's available by state and city. Some states have a lot of programs available while others have a few.

I live in California and most of the programs listed were either things I had already tried or wasn't eligible for.

Unfortunately for me, this book was a waste of money. Fortunately, it wasn't expensive.

This book, as advertised is just a one stop place for all that's available. Some of the data wasn't quite up to date, but if you don't want to do any research on the Internet about what's available to you, then this book could be useful.

A little more than a directory
The book has some hints however, it is more of a directory which is outdated.

Free Money for Entrepreneuers
Excellent sourcebook for anyone wanting to set up a business or find more funding for their existing business.
