Freewriting Assignment 6. June 7, 2012

Topic: People born with money

I'm sure we've all seen them. The person driving the very nice and expensive car next to you. The person who doesn't need a job for anything except extra spending money. The people who are born with everything. This is my freewrite on them. I am not saying I am one, nor do I have a horrible opinion on them. I just wish they would realize how lucky they do have it. I was born in a family with very little. My family had enough money to put food on the table, and that kept us happy. For my birthday's, I never got the extravagant gifts. I had the things I needed, such as clothes and a bed. I am no longer living that life style. I do have luxuries that others do not have. For the way I grew up, it gave me values. Something I hold dear. I know people who grew up with the nice life. They take everything for granted. They don't hold a lot special, unless it was a very expensive car they were given. I am speaking from personal experiences with fellows that I know of. For these reasons, the things I have, I can treasure. I find enjoyment in having a fridge full of food, gas in my tank, and money for my bills. These are just a few of the things that "spoiled" people look over with no concern. I decided on this specific topic because the few people I do know, they talk about how they never have free time because they work twenty hours a week. These are the things that bother me. When you have so much compared to others, and work minimal hours, you really shouldn't complain. I believe I am doing just fine on everything and I'm no where close to being spoiled, nor does anybody else pay my bills. I do not mean to sounds cruel towards them. I know that not every spoiled person is this bad. It's just the few I know of, and have seen.
