I was fortunate enough to travel to our great nation’s capital this week to meet with other individuals who market consumer products and services to either baby boomers or their parents. Our goal of this meeting was to talk about the industry of “care giving” and ways we can connect with this audience better. I went into the meeting thinking that I was going to get all of this great information on how to market to a caregiver, but what I walked away with was MUCH MORE.

On January 16th, 18 members of One Reverse Mortgage travelled from our offices in San Diego, to attend the Cleveland Cavaliers vs. the Los Angeles Clippers game at the Staples Center in downtown Los Angeles.
A fun filled two hour bus ride ensued, being with the staff outside of the office is always a treat. Professionally we all respect each other for our abilities, but seeing a more human side of our staff is always a welcome treat.

Jay Farner, CEO of One Reverse Mortgage was recently interviewed by our own Regis Hadiaris on his Dot Connector Blog.
Regis presents a wonderful interview with Jay Farner with his insights about leadership and personal productivity. Having known Jay for the last 6 months, I can attest to the energy that he has brought to One Reverse Mortgage, the interview that Regis did with him shows his enthusiasm and his state of mind as we go forward into 2010.

Lorene & Gene back in the day
How does one go about capturing details about one’s life and putting it into one small blog entry? This is the question I have been asking myself for the past few years. I’ve always wanted to tell others about the amazing life tales of our clients.
Well it finally came to me a few months ago when I was fortunate enough to speak with a couple from Tennessee who recently received a loan from One Reverse Mortgage. The conversation actually started as a way to find out how their loan process went with us in hopes we could use them as an “example” for other, future clients. We like to make sure that they got everything they needed, and in turn, ask them if they would be willing to tell others.
What started as a way for them to “rate” their experience turned into an epiphany for me: We need to tell about these incredible individual’s lives so that their stories are not forgotten over time and this cannot wait any longer!
And so, I introduce to you “Life Stories”.

The One Reverse Mortgage Staff held their annual holiday party, the theme this year, voted on by the employees, was bowling at Mira Mesa Lanes, about a 5 minute drive east of the corporate offices here in San Diego, CA.
The office was split into four teams of 5 which were announced two weeks before the event would occur. Tensions were high in the office as teams scrambled to come up with ideas for what they would be come bowling day. Cash prizes were going to be given out to the best team name/outfit, the best bowler, and the best combined team score. Since none of us actually knew how to bowl, the only thing we could really work on was the best team name/outfit contest.
The four teams hid the information from the rest of the teams until bowling day. People wandered into the office hiding t-shirts, snuggies, clothes that their parents would wear, and baseball caps with pins on them. After an empassioned meeting led by our CEO Jay Farner, it was off to the bowling alley.

On December 8, 1941, President Roosevelt addressed a joint session of congress, his speech has lasted the last 60+ years and has become one of the most powerful speeches in Presidential history.
My father and many other people alive during that era can remember where they were when the speech was made and also where they were when they first heard of the attack, or where they were if they were in the attack.
The full text of the speech is below. This speech brought the United States into World War II.
