The Next Online Brokerage - Built By You

[Mattu]

Ken wants me to wrap up this letter [to Trump/celebrity/whoever he sends it to] with you guys...wanna get this off my plate so I can move on to more geek-like things.

So here goes. I like what Dave wrote. Just a few minor changes.

If no major beefs, I'm calling it done, slapping it on Ken's desk, telling him to fill in his blanks, and sending it to whoever he wants to pursue. Let's call this done by 10am tmo and move onto my nerd stuff that me likey, eh?

Good Morning Mr. [name],

I am writing to you this morning to offer you an opportunity to join with 200 financial investors who are banding together to create the world's first online brokerage firm that is being built from the ground up via the internet.

My name is Kenneth Scordo.

I am a 20 year veteran stockbroker. I worked in Manhattan during the first ten years of my career and spent the last ten years of my career working and living here in Orange County, California.

About 5 months ago I began the process of creating a broker-dealer. The process of creating a brokerage is a highly regulated process that requires multiple licenses and years of practical experiences with those licenses.

The entire process takes six months and we are on-schedule to be open for operation at the end of April of 2005.

The firm's name is OC Securities. OC Securities will be a full online investment brokerage firm focusing on the active online trading community.

What is unique about this opportunity is that OC Securities has partnered with Matt Brown. Matt Brown owns two of the largest four financial communities on the Internet. Mr. Brown created INVESTORSHUB.COM (known as iHub) 5 years ago when he was only and subsequently purchased SILICONINVESTOR.COM (known as SI) 2 years ago.


You may be asking yourself "What are INVESTORSHUB.COM and SILICONINVESTOR.COM, and who thinks these websites are good places to market an online brokerage firm?"

Here are some of the current statistics for the websites:

Traffic Stats
• 525,000 registered members
• 50 million page views per month
• 40 million ad inventory per month
• 1 million+ unique users each month
• 25 million messages posted
• Broadest reach of any financial community

Current/Recent Advertisers include: Schwab/Cybertrader, Ameritrade, Waterhouse, E*Trade, FXCM.com, eSignal, TheStreet.com, StockCharts.com

What is going to be unique about this online brokerage firm is that we intend to take full advantage of the synergies of thousands of writers and their daily passion to write on finance in a way which has never been done to date. [explanation of your equity deal, how you'll leverage, and how they're rewarded -- clearly -- inserted here]

We are asking you to be a partner with us in this endeavor. [explain what you want him to do]

The answer as to why you would wish to be involved in such a business plan is simple. It is well known that you made billions in real estate, the best game in town.

The second best game in town is Wall Street and quite possibly the Internet and we believe you have little to no exposure to these areas.

Why a deal with a start-up like OC Securities?

Because our structuring will allow you the best deal in town and a communal on-line deal. This vision is currently being discussed online by many who believe that ihis venture will take personal investing online to a level never seen before.

Marketing is everything in business today.

Ameritrade and Etrade have multi-billion dollar capitalizations and do little more than take trades, Matt Brown, OC Securities and the 200 dedicated people from INVESTORSHUB.COM and SILICONINVESTOR.COM have the window of opportunity open and the passion to make this work fun and profitable for us all.

I have a business opportunity which I would like to offer you.

Respectfully yours,
Ken Scordo
