No, but I know two people who had SBIR I+II grants. Again, this is not an open race. The mathematical chances that you get it are 10%. The real chances as an not insider? Probably below 1%. But ask. What do you want to know.

"I pay $500 every month for my father healthcare, even though I haven't seen him in over 10 years now." Would you mind explaining: 1. Do you have to pay this? (By law, in some countries you have) 2. Do you pay voluntarily?
