Mollie Sherrill (Bronze Executive Director)
After spending an enormous amount of time and money getting her graduate degree in the belief that it was a ticket to her dream job and dream income, Mollie discovered that she dreaded the 9-5 grind and being locked in an office all day, surrounded by people who were miserable with their jobs as well.
"I now know that true wealth includes time freedom! I knew in my 30's that I wanted to create wealth for myself and my children. But my savings was never even close to enough to buy annuities or invest in stocks." she says.
So how does a single mom with virtually no savings and an overwhelming desire to work her own schedule out of her home, making her children a priority with enough flexibility to travel often to warm, sunny beaches
find the position of her dreams? "I hired myself! When I discovered
Pre-Paid Legal my children were 9 and 13 years old. So I've worked my business part time for several years. The tax benefits of self employment were attractive to me from the start. And because Pre-Paid Legal pays renewals on the overrides of my team's sales in addition to my own sales, I could see that I was on track to building what equated to annuities that I could fund with sweat equity instead of cash. It's exactly the kind of formula for true wealth building that I needed!"
Mollie admits that her business education may have clued her into early recognition of the profits to come for Pre-Paid Legal Services. "It was the fact that so many markets in Western Europe already had strong market penetration with their own versions of a pre-paid legal plan that caught my attention. I thought to myself, "Hey, the Beta test is already done. But here I am with the opportunity to claim my share of what USA Today describes as a market that looks like Health Care before it became a trillion dollar industry! "
"In hindsight, I realize that in learning to maintain my vision of creating wealth and being part of the team of men and women who are committed to helping Mr. and Mrs. Stonecipher realize their dream of affordable justice for all Americans, one of the greatest gifts of all has been the positive influence upon my children. Through the personal development that I experienced with the help of my sponsors, the Melia Family, I learned to establish my goals in writing, post those goals and the steps to their achievement in visible areas in our home and discipline myself to learn from life coaches on recordings in my car or books that were being read by our team. As the years went on, I began to see my children set goals for themselves, believe in their dreams and look for the kinds of positive associations and disciplines that I was also pursuing. None of the parenting books I read told me that by building my own business with Pre-Paid Legal, I'd also model those qualities for my children! My son and daughter are both pursuing their educations and dreams away at college now, so I can dig in and dedicate far more hours to my business while our company experiences the mega growth that's already begun!"
"Now my focus is to help as many people as possible take advantage of this great opportunity and create lives they can truly enjoy with time freedom and financial freedom. And I can enjoy the process as I work with the awesome system, team members and leadership supporting me as I help others. Silver Executive Director is good, but until I reach Platinum, I still have so many more people to help. Thank you so, so much Melia Family and Mr. and Mrs. Stonecipher!!"
