Chiropractors have always seemed really cool to me. They get to crack bones and make people feel better at the same time.I don’t see why i shouldn’t think about this career pathway.

Student Success Statement

A Choice: Poverty or Prosperity

" I hated poverty. Poverty is more of a choice than anything else, and I can change that(poverty). It depends upon how hard i want to work, and i decided that i would change it." -Dr. Ben Carson 

This statement is showing that it doesn't matter what situation your in, money should never be a problem. A person who is always broke is broke for a reason. Whether its because they don't have a job or they always spend there money. Maybe its because they are a single parent and have to feed and bath their children. What ever case it is you don't need to live in poverty. You can get another job maybe one that pays better.Get your GED or go back to college and make more money. There is always a choice and there is always another way around poverty. Especially if you want you kids to be happy and have everything they want in life. For example, people don't just wind up living in poverty. There is a chain of events that lead them up to where they are. Although, you can always break out of poverty with the right choices. All you need to be willing to do is put in some hard work.

Another reason is because i would always want to teacher the other kids things that i already knew. Besides of i become a College Professor i would be doing something i like.
