Richard -

No offense, but why are you the guy to raise $200 Billion? What experience do you have in this arena?

Comment by Richard Bradford on July 14, 2008 at 10:21pm

Thank You JD,

I'm placing you in the contractor contribution category. Can you indentify the type of corporation (I.E. LLC, C-Corp, Etc.)?

Creating Phase Two discussion now and will appreciate your posts in that area to make sure we dont loose you in the inevitable chaos of Trustee selection.

Sincerely,

Rihcard

Why all the media Hype over Alternative Renewable Energy?

The hoopla and the hype about the Alternative Energy Industry are due to several factors that can be summed up very simply.

Obviously the new cost of the old standard; OIL.
We as Americans never do anything until made to. IE: Voting.

Because of the Dynamic shift from a production society, post WWII in the US to a service or market Economy by the end of the 90’s.
Was one of a cause and effect, if you will…?

The 90’s was the internet boom….
The 2000 to 2006 the Real Estate boom….
Now we have Real Recession and Inflation, the economy going two different directions at the same time…Stagflation.

So it is quite evident the next boom to get America back on tract is the
Alternative Energy boom.
It’s what makes America Great.
It is these bubbles, or as Greenspan well stated it the “Frothiness” that becomes
THE AMERICAN ALTERNATIVE RENEWABLE SUSTAINABLE ECONOMY.

We will rebound and this Alternative Energy Industry will make it so.
God Bless America…….

I have an agenda.....

My life's goal is to have all residential property co-generating electricity in North America by 2025. Little know fact it's only 25% of entire North American Grid Consumption.
This is attainable we have the technology and the man-power.....
We must start now!!!!
Time for talk is over.....

I have introduced the Boldest Solar/Housing Initiative ever put forth...
Entire subdivisions of low-cost Modulars with little to no electric bill that retail from $79,900 to $149,900 680sq 2/1 to 1380sq 3/2
Meets the need for low-cost housing and helps over Stressed Grid during PEAK_USAGE hrs as entire subdivisions come on-line becoming virtual mini-generating stations.

As well as helps the environment…
win-win-win.
It is the short term solution to a long term problem.......

Now that I have come home to south Georgia....
it is time to enlist All the help with this I can get.
I need more R & D with my new patent Idea an will be asking for Ga Tech's help.....with the SOLAR POWERED RECIRCULATOR GENERATOR which will drive the cost of production down by almost 60%
and will also be going back to Washington DC in this election year to demand more from our "so called elected or soon-to-be-elected officials".

I am in negotiations with Roger Little of Spire Solar in Mass to build a 100mw manufacturing plant in Liberty County Ga.

My plan is simple mix Roger's little assembly line with RapidModular.com's walling panels to produce under one roof the
structures of the future.

A new market?

Our timing appears fortuitous.
Solarbuzz llc. Says “revenue for the global solar technology industry reached $10.6 billion in 2006, while capital investment through solar photovoltaic-technology business hit $2.8 billion”, the annual World Solar Photovoltaic Industry Report. In addition, the industry raised more than $4 billion in equity and debt financing, up from $1.8 billion a year earlier. Solarbuzz also predicts the industry could expect revenue to reach between $18.6 billion and $31.5 billion by 2011.
In addition, the company is in best effort negotiations with Washington, D.C.-based law firm Chadbourne & Parke LLP to study the feasibility of securing state and federal incentives on a project-by-project basis.

The solar industry is booming, boasting growth of more than 40 percent each year and some $30 billion in sales last year, according to Photon International

Clean energy investment soars
July 3, 2008 11:21 am EDT Filed in Investing
Investment in sustainable energy worldwide is posting big growth, with $148.4 billion going to the sector in 2007, according to a new United Nations report.
That was an increase of 60 percent over the previous year, and the dollars climb when all financial transactions including acquisitions are included. That number is $204.9 billion.
The majority of the money going to sustainable energy came in the form of investments geared at adding capacity for renewable energy — a 67 percent surge to $84.5 billion last year. Public market investment in sustainable energy more than doubled, to $23.4 billion from $10.5 billion in 2006. Early stage venture investments grew 112 percent to $2 billion.

The primary funding source will be a Private Placement Memorandum with Subscription Agreement.

Stock will be sold in units
One unit is = to 2000 shares
The cost is $25US per share
So the unit cost is $50kUS

This will be in the form of $25kUS interest only cash loan at 6% simple interest
With a promissory note of $1000US per month for 25 months. Certificate will be issued immediately and transferred at 25th month. This will coincide with Direct Public Offering.

The 6% interest is paid semi-annually to stockholders.
The 25kUS cash will stay in escrow until the day we go public then there will be the pay-out back to stockholders.
The $1000US per month will be used for operating capitol.

The Capitol Expenditures to build out manufacturing Plants, PV and Modular will come from DOE State and Locale Municipalities Grants and initiatives the bulk will be Bridge Loans/holding preferred stock with warrants.
From unnamed Investment Banking Firm
Contenders are: Credit Swiss, World Bank with Asian Development Bank (India and China), Fidelity, and Franklin Templeton.

Comment by Richard Bradford on July 14, 2008 at 6:51pm

Greetings and Salutations.

First I want to thank Donald, Ryan, JW and Sara for taking the time to express your thoughts and ideas. We are ready. We are willing... and We are moving. This is the most difficult part. Moving words into action.

To answer a very important question posted by Ryan. I'd like to address the mandate question..

No. All fund stock sales will be 100% private sector but will be exclusively invested in green contractors who contribute directly to the one trillion dollar wind farm development outlined in the Pickins Plan. The amount of money needed is entirely too large for one organization to shoulder alone. This is a solid investment for long term investors with low risk tolerance.

The returns from dividands are not yet determined but my thinking is that the preliminary expectiations should be that it will target low risk investors who are not currently enjoying the return on investment in established 401K plans. The plan or goal of this discussion group is to create a fund that competes with 401K managers who are unable to offer low risk options that gain steady value; in expectation that the billions of dollars currently available, invested, and gaining no ground or being lost as a result of big oil's wealth transfer; will successfully be divested into an immediate and atractive alternative to the 401K plans that are currently underperforming. The risk will be low due to the diversity of the types of contractor investment.

Some of the fund's stocks will realize imediate ROI by investing in the corporations that manufacture the equipment and parts. Other fund stocks (such as those invested directly in lease agreement) will not generate immediate ROI as it will not realize profit until after the construction of our farm is complete, producing clean energy, and is plugged into the grid. However; while that portion of the stock may take the longest amount of time to produce dividands; it will be expected to generate the highest profit margins, as it will have the lowest operating expenses.

A final guarentee to long term growth and diverse investment will the decision to re-invest 50% of the profit into hydrogen gas electrolysis plants, utilizing surpluss energy not absorbed by the grid, that will creat hydrogen gas, which can later be sold and distributed directly on the transportation market.

All plans can change if the group discussion warrants but the initial thinking is that the fund will invest solely in contractors from one of the following areas (manufacturing, construction, wind farm maintenance, grid maintenance management, direct investment of wind farms through land lease agreements, hydrogen plant construction, etc.. I.E. Own the plan). Any organization meeting specific contract requirements and financial health (TBD) are eligible for funding in exchange for a 1 for 1 stock purchase (the 100% match).

The expectation is to finance 20% of the entire Pickens plan resulting in ownership of 4.4% of the nation's energy production grid and to bee first movers.

Let me know what you think of the initial plan. We will set reasonable goals, achieve them, and move forward. Keep in mind that we have differant types of work that needs to be done and much of it requires very little knowledge in stock market trends. This fund is a trend setter by definition so that experiance would be useless for our purpose. We only need a common belief in a common vision (The PickensPlan) to draw on all our strengths. Just as an example, we need to identify each type of contractor needed and perhaps even look towards creation of management organizations as the services needed may not have establised vendors who meet the requirements.

To address Sarah's question, No. I have not spoken to Mr. Pickens yet. Truth is. I dont need to. I believe he is on the money with his ideas and while I know nothing about building the wind farm, I do know how to raise funds.I am looking forward to all of your continued comments in the near future.

Kind Regards


Richard Bradford

Mr. Bradford, this is very encouraging!

Just as an aside, knowing that my case may be different than other peoples I may the following information available. Although I currently work for the Feds and have a retirement fund with them (of limited stocks), I can buy ANY exchange stock or fund thru my SCOTTRADE Traditional IRA or Roth IRA money. At least in my case, no employer plan would be needed for me to participate. Anyone who has changed jobs and has money from a retirement fund from a previous employer who likes to Trade the Market like I do, also has a retirement fund online like SCOTTRADE that they buy individual stocks from, sheltered from taxes. I can only buy USA stocks easily, but I can buy all of those available thru the regular channels.
THANK YOU FOR LOOKING INTO THIS!
JW

Comment by Donald E. Vandergriff (US Army retired) on July 14, 2008 at 5:19pm

Lets start a discussion on how to get this going, who is going to manage the fund? What does Mr. Pickens think of it, and can he support us? I want to start his plan without waiting for the government. They are not going to do anything, except protect the status-quo (see my blog at www.donvandergriff.com).

Comment by Donald E. Vandergriff (US Army retired) on July 14, 2008 at 5:15pm

What does our founder, T. Boone Pickens say? Does anyone have contact with him, what does he need from us to support his effort?

Comment by Donald E. Vandergriff (US Army retired) on July 14, 2008 at 5:13pm

By having all of us each invest in Mr. Pickens plan makes us vested beyond joining a blog. I am ready to invest some money in something I believe in, as well as feel good that it is going to reverse the stupid decisions of our political leaders over the last 30 years.
