Company Summary

We match formerly successful businessmen in need of a new opportunity with the hundreds of bowling alley operators who are of retirement age and with interested investors. In Stage One we find investors to back our acquisition of a selected bowling center. In Stage Two we use our experience to match other bowling center owners with buyers and investors who enjoy low-risks, good returns and contribute to a serious need- senior income shortfalls..

    Parkinson's has derailed Jean from her career in chemical engineering. As a result she has worked for her husband's businesses in marketing and sales. She is the mechanical, technical, and product development half of this husband-and-wife duo. She sees bowling alleys as one readily accessible source for talented seniors and by streamlining the identification and acquisition process, a golden opportunity for the right investors.

He is proud of the fact that in 19 years he never missed a payroll. However, he now finds himself unable to make ends meet.
