I always tell someone that if you're thinking of getting involved in a system, Quiznos, Google Quiznos, go on the Wall Street Journal blogs, read that mess, and realize, and you can say, well, a lot of it can't be true or whatever.
The problem is the bankers are reading that too.
So if you want to finance a Quiznos, you need to be able to say, hey, I understand what's on the Wall Street Journal blog.

And, yeah, you're going to have your supporting document.
You're not going to throw the 50 pages at it.
You're going to summarize it for us.
and you're going to say, hey, you know what?
I have $223,000, and it's coming from this source.
My wife's 401K, and my mother-in-law is lending me money.
boom, boom.
