Fast Food
Today , the fast food industry nowadays has grown dramatically during the last few years. According to research, people spend more money on fast food than in higher education. The people that eat fast food range over all ages. However, senior people do not eat fast food very often. Some of the reasons that young people eat more fast food than old people are young people have more money to eat and more ability to go out to eat than old people do.
Today, most of the young people have more money to buy fast food than the old people do. To young people, the money that their parents provide is just enough for lunch. Young people, mostly high school students, want to work so they can have money to spend on clothes and hang out with friends. Since young people do not have to pay for their house or other bills, they keep all their money from work. Young people are more careless with their money than old people are.

Successful person
1 - Thomas Edison:
In his early years, teachers told Edison he was "too stupid to learn anything." Work was no better, as he was fired from his first two jobs for not being productive enough. Even as an inventor, Edison made 1,000 unsuccessful attempts at inventing the light bulb. Of course, all those unsuccessful attempts finally resulted in the design that worked.
2 - Orville and Wilbur Wright:
These brothers battled depression and family illness before starting the bicycle shop that would lead them to experimenting with flight. After numerous attempts at creating flying machines, several years of hard work, and tons of failed prototypes, the brothers finally created a plane that could get airborne and stay there.
3 - Michael Jordan:
Most people wouldn't believe that a man often lauded as the best basketball player of all time was actually cut from his high school basketball team. Luckily, Jordan didn't let this setback stop him from playing the game and he has stated, "I have missed more than 9,000 shots in my career. I have lost almost 300 games. On 26 occasions I have been entrusted to take the game winning shot, and I missed. I have failed over and over and over again in my life. And that is why I succeed."
