The future


                After reading the book Nickel and Dimmed, it has made me realize what a struggle it would be, to live in poverty.  Having a cheap home and working many jobs just to get by and hardly enough money to eat doesn't sound like the kind of life for me.  I feel like this is very possible for me to come out better than this in this troubled time today.  I will by working hard in college and at the job I will have.  In class we talked about where we would be in ten years and I feel like I have a legitimate and very possible plan.  I plan to go college at a tech school in Colorado or Utah for a business associates degree. After college I will work for my dad at Schmidt Custom floors and work hard to buy a duplex.  My plan is to buy duplexes and rentals over time until one day I can live off monthly rent.  I feel like by working hard and doing this, maybe I will be free from living in poverty.

  1. I thought it was short, but still good. I like that you have like your whole life planned out. Sounds like a legit plan to me.
