Jeffery Walters

The true "Pawn" industry pioneer emerged years after small pawn shops had already set roots and been established around the globe. To the surprise of many he was born and raised in a quiet town in the state of WV in the United States of America. Learning the crafty buisness from a close child hood friend Jeff took to this new found career and ran with it. With his ambitions higher than ever and his mind stimulated by a new meaning to life he new his entrepreneurial wings had grown. With nothing but a passion to become successful and a will to help others he relocated to a small New England town. Jeff was not blinded by his instant success, not by any means. Jeff recirculated every penny he earned back into the local economy helping the great state of NH one person at a time. After 4 years of building this empire Jeff himself proved that he is human and purchased himself a pair of ostrich skin shoes. This was a huge step back for the man who had taken pride in his humilty. Jeff Walters took a solemn vow to never again be tempted by the unnecessary glamours in life and to this day he can be seen showing up to his pawn shop 6 days a week (unless otherwise notified by a torn piece of reciept paper taped to the entrance door) at 10:00-10:15 sharp unlocking that front door and flipping the closed sign over to open. It is a well known fact that on any given day that the rent is do if you were to ask one of his customers he is not only open for buisness but he is opening up his heart of a saint and most importantly opening up his wallet to help yet another person one pawn at a time. I had the opportunity to sit with this Jeff and when asked about his generosity he said "we are all pawns in the game of life"
