The Godfather of PDL's - Inspirational

Published: Thu, 02/05/15

Sometimes I get down. Taking daily beatings by the media,
so-called consumer advocates, politicians and members of my
left-wing, Orange County, Calif. community gets old.

I take dozens of phone calls and hundreds of emails
weekly from friends, peers, and clients in the small dollar
lending space with problems, challenges & opportunities.

Today, I was reminded by a good friend in the payday loan
space that, "WE ARE WARRIORS!" I needed that. It felt good
to hear it.

Following my conversation with my friend, I read this in
The Times Free Press:

"Allan Jones is a philanthropist, a wrestling fanatic, a sharp
businessman and a risk-taker. He's also the godfather of payday
lending and the savior of America's oldest suit maker. Some people
love him and some people hate him. Some people want what he has and
despise him for having it. It all goes with being one of the
richest people in Tennessee."

Read the rest at The Times Free Press: INSPIRATIONAL.
If you're in this business, you've got to invest 10 minutes.
