Wow, 10 years, that feels like an eternity but if it moves at the same speed as college it will be here tomorrow. So, this is where I want to be in 10 years.
Like most people, I have always wanted to be financially successful and the underlying theme to being financially successful is money, money, money. The value of a dollar has always intrigued me. From the time I was little I have been budgeting, saving, or trying to make money. My parents, teachers, and peers have always told me to do something that I love. Well, for me it’s investing. I find investing in stocks, bonds, and/or mutual funds fascinating. They mesmerize me the way little children look at presents on Christmas day or we guys watch college football Saturday afternoon through Saturday night. Some of the wealthiest people in the world are positioned at the top because they were able to make great, sound investments. For example, the second wealthiest man in the world, Warren Buffet, CEO of Berkshire-Hathaway, was able to become so filthy rich because he made smart investments. Many experts have compared him to the Michael Jordan of the investment world. So, through research, a few late nights at the office, and a little intuition I see myself being a top investment banker at Capital One, whose headquarters are in
As for my personal life, I would like to be married to my girlfriend, Whitney, whom I have been dating for one year. She is an amazing person both inside and out and I consider myself extremely lucky to have her in my life. I would like to have a few children and purchase a plantation style home with lots of land somewhere in Northern Virginia, which is close to the majority of my family who reside in
Most of all, I want to be a good family man. I want to be involved in the day to day joys…and occasional sorrows… my children will face and instill good values and morals in them the same way my parents have done for me. I want to provide for them and know that they can count on me.
