For a Few Dollars More

Louisiana Purchase has often been described as the greatest bargain in American history. The price for the 828,000 square miles, which more than doubled the previous size of the United States, was $15 million dollars, and taking into account the debt relief given to France whom the land was purchased from, the grand total rang up to $27,267,622 - or thirty-three dollars a square mile.

Yes I think athletes are overpaid . One reason why I think that athletes are overpaid is because care makers don’t make that much. Here the average salary for a nurse 70,000 dollars doctors make 187,200 dollars a year. Guess how much sport make 500,000 to 71 million dollars.

In our society many people have not as much as you think if you parents went to…

thousand dollars in debt from college. That is a very large amount to owe when you’re supposed to be starting your life and buying a house and starting a family. At that point in my life there is a possibility that I won 't have a career yet, which means I will be making a minimal amount of money, if any at all. It would be insanely hard to pay off debt while I had many other things I was focusing on that required money as well. Also, there is a good chance that you will end up paying more than…
