Small Business Guidance and Loan Resources during Covid19

At a meeting of the Milpitas Chamber of Commerce I heard several speakers on the topic of financial relief to small businesses because of economic disruption due to the Coronavirus (COVID-19) outbreak.

My main takeaway was that each small business owner should get a free business councilor through the SBDC to help figure out which sort of relief funding would be best in their situation. The nearest SBC Center to Milpitas is the Alameda County SBDC at Ohlone College in Fremont. A little further away is the Silicon Valley SBDC – Hispanic Chamber of Commerce on Monterey Rd.

Silicon Valley Singles Center

In a nutshell: Milpitas is not a good city for singles. Out of about 19,000 homes in Milpitas, nearly 16,000 are family-led. Few homes are owned by single people (705), and young adults tend to live with their parents, or other willing relative willing to take them in as they get started. So when looking for someone to date, singles need to look outside into the wider population of Silicon Valley. There is virtually no night life here, unless you count Dave & Busters.

Silicon Valley Dating Services

They’ve got money, power and huge hard drives so why aren’t Silicon Valley’s finest getting any? In Silicon Valley the biggest immigration problem may be sex. People come from all over to work in the valley — from other states and other countries. It’s hard to make connections. Foreign nationals may have been schooled in the universal language of mathematics, but they may also be caught in a neuterland. That is, the rules of attraction and courtship they grew up with in Pakistan and Turkey don’t apply here; dating, West Coast style, can be confounding even for the natives.
