The Inspiring Contradiction
Sitting at home, watching MTV Cribs, I witnessed the luxurious assets of celebrity homes, complimented by luxury vehicles and scintillating swimming pools. It was the result of frivolous spending, but yet it was still captivating. I fantasized about having that type of lifestyle , and since I was young, I knew I wanted nothing less.. I would say to my mom, "I'm going to be a millionaire", and that meant volumes to her because she always wanted me to be self sufficient . I knew I had to choose a career to obtain my goal of becoming affluent, so I decided I wanted to be a business man, and I hoped to own my own company.
My aspirations to becoming an entrepreneur is not only marked by avarice, but by poverty as well. Being the philanthropist that I am , helping people has always been on my agenda for the future. I believe that no one should have to live in squalor. The thought of any human not having shelter or food is heart wrenching, so I want to contribute in assisting to correct this ubiquitous misfortune. To be that entrepreneur, wealth and impecunious livelihood will be my inspiring contradiction.

So good to have you aboard Blogger with a great entry to boot (whew). I read in The New Yorker a couple months ago that Mark Zuckerberg lives a fairly spartan lifestyle considering his multibillion dollar net worth.
