I count my blessing every day for the opportunity that United First Financial and the Money Merge Account has afforded me.  I have been a part of United First Financial for the past 2 years.  When I first became an agent, I was working as an Account Executive for a major Subprime Lender.  I was looking at UFirst as another source of income, but not my main income.  Life in the mortgage business has changed drastically in the past year.  I was able to leave my job in February of this year and work full time on my UFirst business.  It has afforded me the luxuries of working from home and being able to be home with my boys.

This company has changed my life.  It has given me an outlet to help other people as I am helping myself.  There is a quote that I have on my emails, “When some shares something of value with you and you benefit from it, you have a moral obligation to share it with others.”  That is exactly what I am doing with my United First Financial business.  I have been able to help my clients turn their lives around.  They now see a light at the end of their debt tunnel.  They now have a road map on what they need to do to become debt free in record time.  The money Merge Account does this for them.  It takes the weight of their debt off their shoulders and races it towards the finish line.

By building my business with United First Financial, it has afforded me the opportunity to spend more time with my boys.  I am able to pick them up after school and not have to put them in day care all the time.  I was able to spend the summer with them instead of having them in camps all summer long.  My UFirst business has given me the freedom to be with my family.  This is such a fantastic opportunity.  It is work though.  You have to be dedicated and thorough.  You always have to juggle the balance between business, family and life, but United First has made that juggling act easier.

So if any of you who are looking into working from home, look into UFirst.  It is a pehnimenal opportunity that is only getting bigger and better as we go along.  Contact me if you want more information.

Owning a Bull Mastiff is a blessing and a bit of a curse. Mastiff’s are known as the “Gentle Giant.” They are wonderful dogs who are loyal and protective of those they love. They crave human attention. They are known to drool and snore. They are often viewed as being intimidating or scary because of their size. They must be trained at an early age.

I have a 2 year old Bull Mastiff , whose name is Tonka. What else do you name a female Mastiff. She does have many names that she goes by, Mama, Big Mamas, or I-lean. She is currently weighing in at a 137lbs. It is almost exactly 2 years ago that I brought her home from the breeder. She weighed 12lbs at 7 weeks. She has become such a integral part of our family. She is fantastic around my boys, very gentle. She does not know her size tough. She thinks she is a lap dog at times. That can be very interesting. She holds true to most of the behavior that Mastiffs are known for. She loves her people. She can be protective. She seems to not like men with sunglasses and hats on. She definitely craves human attention. She is never very far from one of us. She even lays at my feet under my desk. She is always looking for an invitation to join me on my bed. She takes up most of it when I let her. She snores when she sleeps and drools when she eats. I was lucky enough to have a good trainer for her when she was a puppy. He set her on the path to be such a good and well behaved dog. Thanks B!

She does get a bad rap at times because of her size. When I walk her people either move out of our way

Tonka & boys

because of her size or they are comment on her size. She has been called a horse, a tiger, a pony, and a lion to name a few of the comments that I hear. Her bark is loud and deep when she hears things that she is unsure about.

She has been so much fun these past 2 years. She is funny and smart. She is crazy at times. She loves water, whether it is the hose, sprinklers or jumping off our dock at the river. She is always there for a hug or a paw or a huge lick. I would not trade any of the time with her for any other dog. She is definitley a blessing in my families life. Our life is that much fuller because she is a part of it.
