My intended major is business management. I believe that entrepreneurs hold the keys to their own destinies. My father owns his own business, and I admire how it gives him the freedom to take risks and share in the fruits of his labor. Only business owners have this option. What has surprised me most about American business, however, is just how hard one has to work to earn the right to take those risks. I grew up in Hong Kong as the child of a small business owner. My parents sent me to a boarding school in Great Britain. Afterward I did not want to stay in Hong Kong. Rather I wanted to go to America, or at least the America I saw on TV. There every student has a car, every person has a job, and they work from 9-5 fulfilling their duties and get to enjoy themselves the rest of the time.
It never occurred to me, as a I grew up, that there was any question of my success.
