			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>The business news reports that <a href="http://www.primestrategiesblog.com/goto/Goldman_Sachs/232/1" rel="nofollow"  target="_blank">Goldman Sachs</a> is partnering with billionaire Warren Buffet in a philanthropic effort called 10,000 Small Businesses.</p>
<p><a href="http://www.primestrategiesblog.com/goto/Gaebler_com_s_Resources_for_Entrepreneurs_reports/232/2" rel="nofollow" title="10,000 Small Businesses project"  target="_blank">Gaebler.com&#8217;s Resources for Entrepreneurs reports</a> &#8220;The project includes a $200 million donation to community colleges to give grants to small business owners to further their education, as well as an investment of $300 million through a combination of lending and charitable support.</p>
<p>Buffett agrees that the investment is good business.&#8221;Our recovery is dependent on hard working small business owners across America who will create the jobs that America needs,&#8221; he said.&#8221;</p>
<p>Seems like you&#8217;ll want to stay in touch with your local community college and check with your bank to see how you can benefit from this money and professional guidance.</p>
<p>Let me know what you think? Will we actually see any of it?</p>
