Early Life
Growing up, I never knew or thought about what I wanted to do with my life until high school. When I was younger, I always wanted to see where life would take me. I still remember back in 4th grade when my teacher Mr. Gordon had asked me what I wanted to do when I was older. At the time, I was young and did not know what to respond with. As the years passed on I still did not know until about my sophomore year. During these years I have learned a lot of life lessons and also different jobs and what you need to do to be in that job field. In my freshman year of high school, I was considering not going to college and just trying to start a business after high school but I knew my parents wanted me to go, and now that I am a senior I have changed my opinion but I also have mixed feelings about it at the same time because I don't know if I want to be in school for another 4 years. High school was such a life learning experience, and I found what I wanted to do with my life during this time.
Future Goals
I know being broke was not an option especially coming from a not-so-well-off family. After working at Panda Express for over a year and a half now I know that when I get older I did not want to work for anyone and I wanted to have my own business and be my own boss. One quote I live by is “if you didn’t come from a rich family, make sure a rich family comes from you”. This is why in 20 years from now, I hope that I can get into the real estate business, specifically being a developer. I can see myself owning many properties and starting new projects such as warehouses, apartments, and mansions. A goal for myself would be to own around 3-5 houses by 30, hopefully. Then 15-30 by 40 and 50 homes by 50 years old. By the time I am 60-70, I could own almost 100 or more than 100 houses, including apartments and warehouses and all my properties. I also want to own a lot of cars ranging from super cars to collectible ones. I want to be able to own cars like Ferrari, Mclaren, Rolls Royce, and more. As a kid, I did not travel much; at the most, it would be twice a year, either to LA or Tahoe. I have never been out of the country to this day, and I think that one of the worst things growing up is seeing all my friends and family go to different places, and I would not be able to travel anywhere. I think this is because my dad is not much of a person that likes to travel, and he never has time due to him always being busy with his business. I want to travel to places over the country like Paris, Canada, Italy, and other places out of the country. I hope I can visit a lot of places and countries before I'm old.
