The article i read was called "You Are Not The Boss Of Me" it was about three young people who
started there own business and each one is quite different from one another.
Jasmine Lawrence is 16 years old and she is from New Jersey. At one point
in her life Jasmine started to lose her hair from many different chemicals she put in her hair.
She started to make her own hair products using natural ingredients, and at the age of 13 she got involved with National Foundation for Teaching Entrepreneurship NFTE. She formed her own business now known as EDEN bodyworks to sell her products. Jasmine sells her products online and at retail outlets across the country including Wal-Mart.Phoenix Bess is 14 and
she lives in Virginia. She loves to knit and finding patterns she likes though is a challenging so she creates her own designs. Phoenix who was home schooled was about to learn how to succeed in business.
She wrote a business plan and figured out what items might sell best. One of her products was featured in the 2007 issue of Knitscene magazine. She is also working on a book of patterns with random house and plans to be published this year.

He makes different web pages for individuals and corporations. Kamarin started in business at the age of 14 after going through the NFTE program. Most of the stuff he knows he taught himself. He charges people $25 per hour or by the web page, depending on the job. In the fall he began his first year at Brandeis University where he is studying computer programming.

My FreeLAnce LIfe

Free Lance is someone who works
for different companies as an editor.
That means they read books and articles written
by computer programmers they fix
mistakes try the make the stuff easier to read. When its comes to
hours at work it depends on the
job he is doing and when the client wants the work to be
done the free lance job allows you to stay at home and work in your
jammy's also if you want to go to the supermarket during the day
or to simply just watch a movie you will be able to as long as you meet the deadline.
In order to be a good freelancer you have to be a good money
manager because when it comes to getting paid you sometimes only
get paid twice a month, or sometimes you will have a good month.
Be a good self motivator.
Be aware of the death details.

Wat it takes to open a business

Opening a business can be a hassle for many people all over the world.
People start businesses everyday for different things.For those who want to start
a business probably don't realize what it takes to open a business.There are three types
of businesses like Home-based,Brick and mortar,and E-commerce. Each have there own meaning
Home-based is like for people who are motivated and focused.Brick and Mortar is like people who
want to get out of the house and do something like in retail or opening a restaurant. E-commerce is people who like to use the computer and make online stores such as ebay.
A business plan is generally details about your business,customers,competitors, and financing.
When you start a business you must register the company's name with the secretary of state
where you will base your business. Businesses can now make loans from banks to get off there feet,people sometimes use there own money, and angel investors. Those are people who invest an amount of money in a start up business in exchange for a part of the business. The most hard part is getting the business of the ground by selling and promoting.

Sand castles in HollyHood!!!

What the main Point? Summarize in one sentence.
Its about a guy named Rob who makes sets for shows,movies,and commercials.

Discuss: Why does Rob Neill compare building sets for television to building sand castles?
He compares those two together becuz after its like all finished and good looking you have to tear it down.

Describe the steps along the construction career ladder and the increasing amount of responsibility that comes with each position.The different steps are Construction Coordinator,Foreman,Gang Boss,and Carpenter.The CC is like a boss for everything,the Foreman is the person who looks at blueprints and determines what they need.The Gang Boss has his own little group of Carpenters and tells them what to do, and The carpenters are the people who make mostly everything.


How does this article relate to you? Like, dislike, interesting, not interesting?I think the article was alil interesting becuz Rob gets to make new things for different movies,and they can pretty much do whatever they want as long as the job gets done.
