30 days

The movie 30 days was a great way to show how ur life can be different through different experiences. He went through a month where he was expected to live off min. wage and survive with him and his girlfriend. I thought that this was very cool to see and how much they had to give up. and ten when real life came into play and he needed to go to the er for his wrist and he didn't want to because of the medical costs, this is not only a horrible feeling but also a reality of which many Americans have to face on a daily basis. We take for granted all of the things that are handed to us by our parents and this movie makes us stop and think a little about our goals.

moving classes

i think it is weird to think you can marry or be into a different class. there is always a chance to move classes and either move up or down, and make a new life for urself. You can do this by working hard or marrying someone rich! just kidding but really wouldnt it be weird to wake up rich and go to bed poor how would u handle this..would it test ur character because i think it would. It would test what you really felt as a human being about the world and how it works. hmmmm

movie and types of class

The movie we are watching deals with different ways to show your class. do you show your class by your house, you clothes, cars..what do you do to reflect where u are in society. Would you chose to buy a new car or invest in new stock. Some people think they need to show of there money with the more glamorous things such as rings, cars, clothes things people can see and know right away that they come from money. It is hard to say that if you could indulge in those possessions you wouldn't, but i think some of it has to do with society and the environment you live in. If you are around people who have all of those material things, you are more likely to try and strive for those things because it is what is considered normal, but it would be more interesting to step outside those norms and change that for the better of our atmosphere.
