My Neighborhood

Being raised in Texas from the age of six till 15 changed my thinking and look on things.  San Antonio Texas is majority Hispanic, White, and African American. Being the only Pacific     Islander in the neighborhood i was look at a little different from the others because most of the people there haven't heard of the Fiji Islands, and Fijians. My neighborhood didn’t effect me personally as to who i am now but it showed me many different life styles and view of different things. Being Raised in a school where you are the only Islander makes you do things and act in ways to fit in different. I had a passion for golf which i went on doing but also it was a common thing in our school for a guy to play football, so i joined that sport as well. Texas in known for its football players and when i told people i will join the team they would say “ oh you are to weak”. Comments like that made me try harder and become a first string starter player for my school. The people around me changed me alot, but my neighborhood showed me that being the only minority in a group of majorities isn't always a bad thing. Texas is known for people being rude and raciest but what people don’t know is that is not true. They showed that i didn’t have to try so hard to fit in to a group. San Antonio showed me that i can be who i am wherever i am. Friendly, helpful, caring, and tough when i need to be are the qualities i brought from Texas to California. My parents managed a hotel in Texas so we stayed in a attached home there. I gained my costumer relations skills there and also my talent to communicate. I didn’t have much neighbors because everyone came for a day or two, but i gained all that i need because of the people i met and friends i made. I am who i am because of what i wanted to be and from what i took in as something that would help me be a better man when i become older.

"We Want You" and only you.

Most companies That deal with credit do it mostly to make money. Targeting low income family’s and areas where poverty is at its highest theses companies make money and spread the opportunity divide. Other then benefiting the people they are pretty much working there way around with things like fine print and scams.
companies are very Rigorous Anyone can walk in, get approved with a loan or a new car and walk out not knowing what the next couple of months will bring. Major companies don’t care much about there so called “customers” i would rather call them “bait” because its what they use to make money. I think its the government that is responsible for not really going into detail about theses companies and showing them for the Alfa-male is. 
Large corporations work there way around the law like posting things where the people cant see, and state that they have there rules posted on site. I think before a person goes to get a loan or do anything that deals with money they should really look into the company they are going towards and  what the companies rules and polices are. Being careful what what you are about to get into is the best thing anyone can do. Like blind shopping, people walk in and sign away there life without reading or thinking about the outcomes in the near future. Loan companies and places that offer credit and loans should post in many place all the details, there is still something called being fair to the world around you..
