Background Information
Ed is a 1970 graduate of Dartmouth College with a life-long career as an independent business and financing consultant. His experience in venture capital began with his engagement to speak at the TECHNOLOGY/IMPEX New Inventions and Products Expo at Monroeville, PA in the early '80s hosted in cooperation with the US Department of Commerce. Also in the 1980s, Ed's business group was offered the opportunity to develop and deliver a small business management short course at the University of New Hampshire and his work history included the development and marketing of a derivative application of one of an earlier database software (R:BASE). From 1991 to 1995, Ed represented a group of Pacific Rim private investors with respect to buying some properties from failed banks as well as evaluating venture capital investments. This work involved the production of extensive documentation and research with respect to financing proposals and placements. It also provided an "up-close and hands-on" exposure to, and experience with, the shortcomings of both the federal government and legal system to equitably deal with and resolve market failures which were the proximate result of what appeared to be "government-enhanced" speculation.
For several decades, Ed has continued his small business consulting activities and, at the same time, has conducted a great deal of research into the growing presence of unfair, deceptive, and unreasonable business practices facing American consumers. Additionally, dozens of clients have saved tens of thousands of dollars through the postponement and/or cancellation of foreclosures and evictions in the wake of the current national housing crisis.
It should be noted that Ed is also intimately familiar with the civil legal process and its relationship to the self-serving interests of political factions and special interests; all at excessive costs and expenses which simply can not be afforded by a vast majority of American consumers and taxpayers. As a result, Ed has also helped many clients get organized and prepared when they have been thrust into the legal arena; in order to dramatically reduce legal costs.
At this point in time, however, Ed believes that we are faced with a set of circumstances which dwarf the bank and market failures of the late '80s and early '90s; and which may be unparalleled in U.S. history. For this reason, he is currently focusing his efforts in two major areas:
- researching and exposing the illegal operation of "foreclosure mills" which have destroyed, and will continue to destroy, the "American Dream" for thousands, if not millions, of homeowners - the unsuspecting pawns in the so called "securitization" of mortgages on Wall Street that generated mind-boggling profits through derivative financing arrangements; and
- coordinating the continuing development and use of an extensive database of resources and referral network to assist both individuals and businesses caught in the wake of recent the economic conditions and are faced with a host of financial losses and other damages.
