Bora Bora Here We Come

Dude! We are on our way! Bora Bora here we come. Carmen and I as well as several of our friends are planning a vacation in Bora Bora. Until a year ago, I didn't even know Bora Bora was an island in Tahiti. I have since found that Bora Bora, is one of the most beautiful islands in the world. We are planning this vacation for late July early August and we will be staying at the Bora Bora Nui. We will be gone for about 9 or 10 days. So often I feel so blessed just to be allowed to live the life that I live. Who would have thought that a poor fatherless boy would grow up and by the age of 26 be self employed and earning an income in excess of six figures. Be in a serious committed relationship to an amazing woman who herself is incredibly successful. I am already so blessed and life continues to have high points and low points. I am certain it always will, but how amazing and how humbling to be in the position that I am.

To be honest even when I was struggling to get through college and didn't have a car and was walking back and forth to school, even then I felt blessed just to have the opportunity that I had. I am talking about the opportunity to sleep on someone else's couch, to be able to attend a community college, and just to be able to have the dream of actually becoming a nurse. Then I became a nurse, I remember then feeling blessed that I was well enough to walk the halls and was not one of the patients laying in the bed that I took care of. I wanted more out of life and decided to start a business working from home. In the beginning, I failed several times but I remember feeling honored to be in a free country like America where there is opportunity to try and try again in this capitalistic society. Once I discovered Coastal Vacations and Decide Freedom International and had success even then and now I feel blessed to be in the position that I am in. Not to mention I am totally humbled at what the future holds for us.

Stay Blessed,

Prosper.com

In the past I have often talked about managing money and investing on this blog. Finances, are something that I love and I am very excited about! One of the more unique ways of investing is through a website called Prosper.com. I discovered this site about a year ago and have rarely ever said anything about it on this blog. In fact the only reason I am writing about it now is because I just left the website Prosper.com. Prosper is like the Ebay of the personal loan industry.

Someone looking to get a personal unsecured loan would go to Prosper.com and apply for a loan between $1,000 to $25,000. Once someone applies for the loan it would go up for bid and anyone and everyone could bid on a small part, up to the entire amount of the loan. Typically a loan would be up for bid for 7 days. If the loan gets funded then the person requesting the loan will get the money they requested. The very next month they will start repaying the loan and you will get your portion of that loan repayment including interest.

Prosper.com
is great because you can literally start investing in loans with as little as $50. Also it's almost like owning your own lending business. Plus, you can earn much more than you can with a Money Market or Traditional CD. For example, I just bidded on a loan that will earn me over 15% interest if I win that loan. Not to mention it's alot of fun bidding on loans! The key to success with Prosper.com is by successfully screening and picking great loans. It takes a little bit of practice but it really isn't that difficult. Just thought I would share that with you. Have a blessed day!

Decide Freedom Intl

I have not been updating regularly and I sincerely apologize for that. The biggest reason for not updating is simply because this blog has not been my highest priority. I have been paying much more attention to my home based business right now and have been focusing heavily on a new marketing system that has been created for our business. We have already had some amazing success with this system so far.

"All I can say is WOW, WOW. WOW! This new group is kicking some booty :) My show up ratio has never been this good. Out of 10 people that I scripted, I followed up with 9! This is INSANE!" - Catherine , MO

"Hi, I am sooo excited about this new website. I love the way it is easier to understand what we are really all about and the ease of training people on my team. Thank you so much for taking the steps necessary to help us grow as a team!" - Amy in MO

"I think that systems is awesome and your support staff ROCK!! Everything I have asked has been dealt with immediately." - Kayleen , BC

"I want to tell you that I have been working with the DFI system and the only thing I have to say is "Thank You...Thank You....Thank You" I know that DFI will allow me to make a 6-figure income within the next 12 months. "To Your Success" - Monique , NB

"Less than 1 week in the system and I have 2 people who are coming in at Level 3 putting their funds together and 1 at level 1! This system ROCKS!" - Mike and Amanda , MO

You can check out the new system for Decide Freedom International here. I look forward to updating much more regularly again.

All the best,
