Wired for Wealth by Brad and Ted Klontz, and Rick Kahler is a phenomenal book on the psychology of wealth building. It points to the different mindsets people have about wealth that can keep them from reaching their full potential. This book also shows ways you can change these mindsets to allow for easier wealth building. This was a brief, understandable, and enjoyable book that I would recommend to anyone who is feeling stuck with their finances.…

I didn’t exactly believe the saying until I was walking across the stage with my pre-med degree and getting my acceptance letter to my medical school of…

pressure, Zinsser refers to the pressure about tuition. He adds “Tuition, room, and board at most private colleges now comes to at least $7,000” (20). The student does not make enough to pay for their tuition even though they have a part time job or full time. This force students to pass all their classes, so they don’t have to take it again and have to pay for it the second time. I believe a student is using economic pressure as an excuse for slacking off. If…

Now, college sports have gained popularity and the issue is now being brought up by players and coaches and is very seriously being considered. College athletes have never been paid before because their scholarships have always “covered the full cost of attendance” (Koch). Since athletes always have went to college free on scholarships, no reason has ever been brought up to prove that the players should be paid. Also, college athletes are coming out and talking about how they do not have enough…

I was diagnosed with a very rare type of soft tissue sarcoma (cancer) on my head in Nov. 2011 at the age of 15. I had two major scalp surgeries to remove the cancer itself in January and February 2012, along with two other surgeries to reconstruct my scalp in summer 2014. My parents and I were scared, but we knew that we were in the knowledgeable hands of surgeons at Northwestern Memorial Hospital. My parents and I were completely shocked when we found out I had cancer. We were all in denial for…

Alyssa Loperena Ms. Milliner CUNY English EES21QH-02 9/25 There are many different thoughts that come up when college is brought up in a conversation. Why do people decide to or not to college? What were their influences? Why did they choose the major they studied? When you’re young you always ask these questions, but the biggest question is do you feel like you can do it? Everyone has the capability to go to college and pass with whatever major they decide to go under, it just depends on…

Even though LGE states that they are aware the importance of protecting human right and they will prohibit the Discrimination (LG Electronics), parts of…

It was the end of my sophomore year and class registration was available to students. I heard from my previous classmates that advanced placement courses help you better develop and understand your writing. My essays were nothing but words on a page. It was weak in style and flow. However, I was hesitant to register for advanced placement courses, specifically English composition. The need for a change came when I realized I needed more attention in my writing. After hearing from my classmates…
