THANKS TO YOU paid subs Megan, Eleanor and Miriam are now FULLY FUNDED and launching their new ventures with micro businesses thanks to our interest free loans when big banks scoffed at helping them. We've done our homework and are confident they'll pay us back on schedule so we can in turn help MORE micropreneurs gain autonomy and economic freedom!

DEAL!! If you need a great deal on a foldable E-SCOOTER for around town or college, this will get you 27 miles and 20mph even if you're over 200lbs. On sale right now on Amazon

Get the SP01 pro model if you can, although both are great https://www.amazon.com/review/R1Q7UR43BIGOOS/ref=cm_cr_srp_d_rdp_perm?ie=UTF8
