IRVINE, Calif., Sept. 9 CA-Hunter-Wise-Fejtek


IRVINE, Calif., Sept. 9 /PRNewswire/ -- Paul Fejtek of Hunter Wise
Financial Group, LLC, Irvine, Ca., is well on his way to climbing the highest
mountain peak on each of the world's seven continents. Paul has successfully
climbed four so far and is about to attempt one of the most exotic and elusive
of these "Seven Summits" -- Carstensz Pyramid on the Oceania continent.
Although not as high, this peak is considered more technically challenging
than Mt. Everest.


Only 229 of the most amazingly fit and determined people in the world have
actually climbed all of the Seven Summits. What makes this daunting feat even
more awesome for Paul is the fact that he was born without the full use of his
right arm. A birth injury known as Brachial Plexus Palsy left him with nerve
damage greatly affecting the strength and mobility of his right shoulder and
arm.


Refusing to accept a life with limitations, Paul was actively involved in
sports from an early age and now competitively races in triathlons to keep in
top shape for mountaineering. One of those 70-mile triathlons he completed
with Robin Williams and other celebrities was a benefit race for the
Challenged Athletes Foundation (CAF), (http://www.challengedathletes.org),
which provides grants for specialized equipment and prosthetic limbs to ensure
that people with physical challenges have the freedom to enjoy sports that the
rest of us take for granted.


On September 23rd, Paul will be in Indonesia attempting to scale the
demanding rock face of his 5th summit with the help of a device he created for
his right hand. "I call it The Claw," Paul says, about this one-of-a-kind
wrist brace he fashioned from a Home Depot coat hook. "I'm counting on it to
help me get to the summit!" Quite appropriately Paul's endeavor to climb all
of the Seven Summits, including Mt. Everest, is part of an initiative to help
create awareness for the Challenged Athletes Foundation. You can learn more
at: http://www.fejteksevensummits.blogspot.com . The other summits Paul has
climbed are Kilimanjaro in Africa, Aconcagua in Argentina, Elbrus in Russia
and Mount McKinley (Denali) in the U.S. Upcoming are Mt. Vinson in
Antarctica and Mt. Everest in the Himalayas.



Paul Fejtek grew up in Glendale, California and now lives in Orange
County, California, where he is a Managing Director of Hunter Wise Financial
Group, LLC, (http://www.hunterwise.com), a specialized investment bank
providing corporate financing, merger, acquisition, divestiture and advisory
services. Paul's wife and climbing partner Denise, has been by his side in
better weather and worse, to the summit of all of their big mountain
adventures.

Yes, I would like to ask how their business differs from private equity, and whether they use the multiple method or discounted cash flow more...

Are you a cpa? or have any accounting experience. Maybe you would have an interest in helping with our financial/accounting needs at UBPN?
