A Coastal Vacations/DFI wedding

It's really like the Coastal Vacations/DFI wedding. I don't mean it's "themed" or anything. I mean that many of the friends that are there will be people flying in from all over the world. People that I have met and come to love as a results of my Coastal Vacations business and DFI. This August it will be 5 years since I have been a Director in Coastal Vactions/DFI. I have seen so much and have been so thankful for the life that I have been able to live. I have lived like a millionaire, I am surely on my way. However, I have lived a very flexible lifestyle. I make my hours, I work when I want (hence why I'm not a millionaire). I have learned so much about myself, about life, and about being and entrepreneur.

This business has given me so much and now it gives me the oppurtunity to marry the most amazing woman I have ever met. Carmen, is not only gorgeous, she is smart, strong willed, supportive, and ambitious in her own right. An interesting tidbit about Carmen and Coastal Vacations. Carmen and my Uncle Pat, were the only two people that were supportive of my Coastal business in the very beginning. In fact, Carmen, has supported everthing that I have ever wanted to do. It is probably one of the things that I love most about her. You can see our wedding website here www.CarmenandJackie.com.

Our wedding is officially this Saturday. Then we are off on our 10 day honeymoon on Monday. We are going on a 10 day cruise to Bermuda, San Juan Puerto Rico, Turks Cacos, and St. Thomas. I will probably find a couple of times to blog from the cruiseship so I will likely keep you update from the high seas. Even this honeymoon, would probably not be possible for me if it was for my Coastal Vacactions/DFI business. First of all our honeymoon will be two weeks long, I don't know that I would have been able to do that if I was still an RN I don't know if I could have gotten that much time off. It definitely would have had to be approved by management for sure. Also, we have a balcony room on this cruise, with airfare and hotel arrangements plus spending money. This could have put me in alot of debt as a nurse. However, with Coastal Vacations/DFI earlier this year I made a Platinum Travel Package sale; with that I earn a profit of $9,705. I paid taxes on it, tithed on it, and set the rest aside for our honeymoon.

Thanks to Coastal Vacations/DFI, I am helping to pay for a wedding, paying for the honeymoon, getting out of debt, and I never had to ask a boss for anything. The next two weeks are going to be spectacular! You can follow along in the next post.

Coastal Travel is real!

I wanted to post this. I just received the letter below from one of our Coastal Travel members. Working in the travel industry is alot of fun but getting letters like this helps us to know that we are allowing people to take vacations that they may otherwise not be able to take with our current economy. Read this short letter I got from Jessica below:

Hi Jackie,

I just booked a one week long vacation on 4th of July week using the Coastal pkg.Wow, 3 bedrooms, full kitchen and totally beautiful furnished condo resort at the Sweetwater Lift Lodge in Park City, UT for only $561. Retail is $2200.

Rack rate is $314.29... per nights, now we only pay $10 per person per night. This unit can fit all of us 8 people... .me, my husband, my two boys, my sister, her husband and her two boys. I am so excited to see my sister and her family and create wonderful memories with them.

Thank you for Coastal. We save total of $1639 for just one vacation.

After reading Jessica's letter, I went and looked up the resort she is staying at. What a beautiful place. You can check it out yourself www.sweetwaterliftlodge.com. One thing that I noticed about this place. They are sold out of 3 bedroom units the week of July 4th on the website. She would not have even been able to book it at $314.29/night because there are none of those units available!

If you haven't started a business with Coastal yet, but you want to do something that can impact people's lives while providing a great flexible income for you and your family. Check out our website here and then give me a call at 1-888-309-5759.

Warm Regards,
