WELCOME !

Thanks for dropping in for some hopefully great business info and on occasion some hopefully not too sarcastic comments on the state of Business Financing in Canada and what we are doing about it !

In 2004 I founded 7 PARK AVENUE FINANCIAL. At that time I had spent all my working life, at that time - Over 30 years in Commercial credit and lending and Canadian business financing. I believe the commercial lending landscape has drastically changed in Canada. I believe a void exists for business owners and finance managers for companies, large and small who want service, creativity, and alternatives.

Every day we strive to consistently deliver business financing that you feel meets the needs of your business. If you believe as we do that financing solutions and alternatives exist for your firm we want to talk to you. Our purpose is simple: we want to deliver the best business finance solutions for your company.

A LEGAL STASH?

The Globe and Mail today had an article on ' NUGGETS FROM MY STASH OF FINANCE BOOKS ' - It was a great article by a John Heinzl of the Globe highlighting some of his favourite financial books . He noted that the books are for both experienced and non-experienced investors . I must confess to not knowing any of these books, but recognized two of them by their authors .

One of my favourite books of all time is a true Wall Street Masterpiece . It is called ' REMINISCENCES OF A STOCK OPERATOR ' and covers the true story of Jesse Livermore, one of the first speculators on Wall Street . Its an incredible story of how Livermore played on investor psychology and created massive pump and dump scams. Many feel he was the cause of the '29 market crash . Its an incredible and humorouos and well written story . The author is Edwin Lefevre .

Interestingly I read this book in the 1980's and then lived through DOT COM era when I was at HP for ten years in the 1990's. In hindsight I had been pre-warned, but neglected the signs!
