I would never imagine having to pay that amount of money just to pursue a good paying career that can provide for your entire life. Although, I have not paid for my college these past 2 years due to having a full ride scholarship for softball, I am glad that I can actually not have to worry about that particular thing just yet.

Singer’s views and opinions on world poverty are valid and logical. Supporting evidence is found in celebrities in entertainment and personal experience. Many people spend extreme amounts of money on luxury items such as vacations, new cars, clothes, shoes, etc. But, how much of those things can really be considered “necessities?” The Kardashian family has made their fortune from their television series Keeping Up with the Kardashians and also with the people they choose to have relations with…
