i would own a piñata factory. you know why? CAUSE I LOVE THEM! well, to a certain extent. anyways. believe it or not piñata have a rich history. heres a small bit about it: There is some debate but it appears that its origin is not Spanish but rather Chinese. The Chinese version was in the shape of a cow or ox and used for the new year. It was decorated with symbols and colors meant to produce a favorable climate for the coming growing season. It was filled with five types of seeds and then hit with sticks of various colors. After the piñata was broken, the remains were burned and the ashes kept for good luck.
and theres much, much more to go. anyways. in the piñata factory i may or may not own, i think i'd give my employees sick days, personal days, weekdays and whatever other kind of day you get to take a break. broadly speacking, however i wouldnt give them too much time off otherwise there wont be any work to get done.on the other hand they may not like that. but, sometmes you'll just have to do things you dont like. supriseingly enough only 13% of people WORLDWIDE actually like to go to work. so thats another thing. then theres healthcare. come on, no matter where you are your going to have an accident one way or another. in hindsight thats not a very good thing to think about. anyways. i think they'd get dental and something else maybe.i dont know its a piñata factory so dental is probably the best idea cause of all the candy. i guess thats it.

Homework: self-made billionaires / millionaires
im going to type about not 1, but 3 self-made billionaires /
millionaires
1:Fraser Doherty: Grammy’s Jam
Fraser Doherty began at the age of 14, using his
grandmother’s recipes to make homemade jam, which he sold to his neighbors in
Edinburgh, Scotland. By 16, he’d created a huge demand for the stuff by
tweaking the recipes on his own and calling it “SuperJam.” Business picked up
so well that he dropped out of school to work full time, and he was soon after
approached by a reputable supermarket chain in the UK in 2007, who offered to
stock his product in all 184 of its stores. Taking out a loan worth around
$9,000 from a local bank, Doherty used the money to cover expenses, including
more factory time to increase production. And in 2009, with the help of his
supermarket chain connection and the addition of Asda Wal-Mart as a stocking
client, Fraser hit $1.2 million in sales. He also published a book called “The
Superjam Cookbook,” available for sale through Amazon. “I can’t be preoccupied
with the money,” he says. “I make jam because it’s what I love to do. Success
is pretty sweet too.”
2. Ashley Qualls: Layout Loot
In 2004, 14-year-old Ashley Qualls launched WhateverLife.com
as a means to show off her design work after a few years of studying HTML. Her
site had virtually no traffic until she began offering free custom Myspace
layouts to fellow classmates. By 2005, with only word of mouth for advertising,
her site began to explode with visitors seeking cool designs to personalize
their social network page. That was when she joined Google’s Adsense program,
which supplied ads to her site and paid her a share of the click revenue. With
site traffic now buzzing, she began accepting offers from various companies to
advertise their products or services on her site in exchange for payment. An
undisclosed bidder even offered to buy out her site in 2005, for a reported
$1.5 million and the car of her choice (not to exceed $100,000). She turned it
down, opting instead to continue running the site she had started on a total
expenditure of $8 for the domain name. WhateverLife.com now plays host to an
estimated seven million visitors per month and continues to earn Ashley
millions in advertising loot. She bought her own $250,000 home in Southgate,
Michigan in 2006.3.

SUCCESS
i really dont know much about success considering you have to be one in order to fully understand this subject, but i'll try my best to explain what i know of it. first off, the 3 important things about success like confidence, knowledge, motivation, etc. are important factors in this subject. lets say your giveing a presentation for a job you may or may not get. you need confidence to walk up to or present your work to whoever your going to work for, next is knowledge since you actually have to know about what your doing and how your going to succeed and finally motivation becuase you need to have the energy and well... motivation to get that job. you cant go in there and start stuttering, forgeting what your going to say and not actually feel like giveing the presentation. you need those three things in order to succeed or in this case do the presentation well. i guess thats all i have to say about this. i know its not technicly advice but its what i understand on the subject. hope you like it.
