I look forward to celebrating my Hispanic heritage with my family by enjoying live music and great food. Others can celebrate in the same way, using Hispanic Heritage Month as a way to learn about other cultures, try new foods, and get to know new people. Celebrating culture is important because we work better together when we understand our differences. I mentioned celebrating culture by trying new foods. One of my all-time favorite dishes is posole, a traditional Mexican soup. I love to eat it in the winter when it’s cold. You can add an assortment of toppings to the …

During the pandemic, I discovered I was on the high-risk list because of my high blood pressure and my weight. So, I decided to take control of my health and well-being again. I was at my heaviest weight and very unhappy. My weight gain started while attending college and working full time. I didn’t have time to exercise, and I was eating on the go between work and school. Once I graduated college, I started to work a lot, so I didn’t make time to exercise and was still eating very unhealthily. I knew if I lost weight, I could …

Here’s the thing: I’m 40 and a mother of three. Let me say that again so I actually believe it. I’M 40 YEARS OLD AND A MOTHER OF THREE (gulp!). I haven’t enjoyed a hot meal in years, used the bathroom without some little grubby tiny person barging in to examine what I’m doing, or completely finished blow drying my hair in over a decade. In fact, just last week after a long day at the office, I came home to find myself unexpectedly cooking three different types of pasta for dinner, because one will only eat spaghetti, one cried …

 “Today is the day we put aside to remember fallen heroes and to pray that no heroes will ever have to die for us again. It’s a day of thanks for the valor of others, a day to remember the splendor of America and those of her children who rest in this cemetery and others. It’s a day to be with the family and remember.” Ronald Reagan, 1986 Leading up to this Memorial Day, I reached out to several of our veteran and current military Team Members so we could share their personal stories on what this sacred day means …

The TMX Finance® Family of Companies has given me a once in a lifetime opportunity to feel like I finally belong and am making a difference. My experience in the U.S. Army transferred over into a career with the Company seamlessly. With my military training, I bring integrity – a key value of the Company – as well as discipline, structure, and loyalty. The relationship between our Company leadership team and Team Members is much like the relationship between military leadership and their soldiers; they care, lead by example, and give tactical direction to help complete challenges as one team. …

Fred “Mitch” Mitchell is a father, General Manager at the TMX Finance® Family of Companies, and a Disabled Veteran who served in the U.S. Marine Corps for 22 years. We thank him for his 22 years of service to the country and his nearly 20 years of dedicated leadership with the Company.   I owe a lot to the person that took the opportunity to hire me at TitleMax®. After serving in the U.S. Marine Corps for 22 years, I began to search for a career that would allow me to spend more time with my family and afford me the …

As a Marine, I am accustomed to a fast-paced environment that poses many personal goal-oriented challenges and a constantly changing routine, to which I adapted to eagerly. So, when it came time for me to make the transition from a military career to a civilian career, a new set of challenges emerged that I wasn’t quite prepared for. Many of the jobs I found after leaving the military simply did not offer the same level of engagement that I came to rely on to be satisfied in my career. That’s why it was so important for me to search for a career with a …

Growing up, I didn’t see myself as being any different from my friends. There were not many of ‘my kind’ at the school I attended, but we all had something in common—freedom. The Vietnam War ended on April 30, 1975, with the fall of Saigon. On the evening of May 25, 1981, my parents boarded a 23-foot vessel along with many other passengers. This wasn’t any excursion you would imagine one wants to take, nor a dream vacation. The Port of Call was unknown. They hoped the destination was the Land of Freedom. My parents were one of hundreds of thousands of …

My name is Charlie Chan, Asian American and a General Manager for TitleMax® in Las Vegas, NV. I started with TitleMax® in California in 2016 and relocated to TitleMax® of Nevada in the middle of 2020. I grew up in Manila, Philippines, and was raised in two different cultures—Filipino and Chinese heritage—which I consider a blessing because I was able to embrace diversity early. The Philippines proudly boasts to be the only Christian nation in Asia with more than 86% of the population Roman Catholic1. Easter is one of the most important “Holy Weeks” as we remember Christ’s passion—his suffering, …
