Worth Unlimited, a financial software services and support company, was awarded the Ernst & Young Entrepreneur Of The Year® 2008 Award in financial services category in Utah.

“When we started United First Financial, we didn’t just want to help people get out of debt and improve their financial situation eventually, we wanted to help them do it fast and with little to no change in their current spending habits”

Worth Account Unlimited's innovative Worth Account™system utilizes existing banking tools, one-on-one coaching and a Web-based software tool to help consumers pay off their mortgages and consumer debt in about one-half to one-third the time.

​

“When we started the company, we didn’t just want to help people get out of debt and improve their financial situation eventually, we wanted to help them do it fast and with little to no change in their current spending habits,” said Skyler Witman, co-founder of WU. “The Worth Account solution has done just that, and more. It helps homeowners pay off a traditional mortgage in as little as one-half to one-third the time, it helps clients without a mortgage eliminate other consumer debt and it helps clients without debt build wealth.”

Worth Unlimited, formerly known as United First Financial, was one of nine Utah-based companies to receive Ernst & Young Entrepreneur of the Year regional awards. According to Ernst & Young LLP, the award recognizes outstanding entrepreneurs who are building and leading dynamic, growing businesses.

​

“Ernst & Young is pleased to honor outstanding business leaders such as Worth Unlimited,” said David Jolley, Managing Partner and Ernst & Young Entrepreneur of the Year Program Director for Utah. “Winners of the Entrepreneur of the Year award build leading businesses and contribute a great deal to the communities around them. Their success helps Utah grow stronger.”

​

Witman and colleagues John Washenko, Don Jorgensen, Jonathan E. Bonnette and Matt Lovelady will travel to Palm Springs, Calif. to compete for the Ernst & Young Entrepreneur of the Year 2008 national program Nov. 15, 2008. Award winners in several national categories, as well as the overall national Ernst & Young Entrepreneur of the Year award winner, will be announced at the annual awards. The awards are the culminating event of the Ernst & Young Strategic Growth Forum, the nation’s most prestigious gathering of high-growth, market-leading companies.
