Nice discussion post this week! I found Dave Ramsey’s seven baby steps to financial peace very beneficial as well. In this example this week had a similar approach on what we would do in this situation. I think it is very beneficial to have some money in an emergency fund and investing some of the sign on bonus money in order to receive more money to have a secure future. Doing this will actually lead to even more money in the future as well. Putting $1‚000 in an emergency fund is very important

The Lost Cause was a movement led by White Southerners in an attempt to restore their society in the harsh Reconstruction era. The movement affected America not only emotionally‚ but politically as well. Limitations and challenges that the Lost Cause movement faced were numerous and overpowering‚ which tell people why the Reconstruction era was so difficult. Some Lost Cause

After the Civil War many of the “Lost Cause” advocates stated that their work was not political‚ this statement is proved correct as the majority of their work was social. The South’s desire to protect the “southern way of life” was the main cause of the “Lost Cause”. Reconstruction left behind the unfortunate legacy of unsuccessfully ending segregation among races in the South‚ as it did little to fix the issues that the Civil War was fought for. “Lost Cause” advocates stated that their work

Guzman Section: DMA1 Book: The Lost Symbol Author: Dan Brown “THE EXPOSURE OF CONFUSING MYTHS” I’ve read some of Dan Brown’s books and I must say that I do enjoy his stories and the awesome idea that there could be some huge conspiracy out there that only a few people know about. Dan Brown’s writing could use a bit of revising and he’s not crafting a great literature here but the content of his stories usually makes up for that specifically The Lost Symbol makes no exception. This is

literature that takes place in another era‚ the audience cannot deny that there is a sense of conformity. People are never distinguished from being an outsider or insider‚ but instead they grow into a certain role. In the PBS documentary‚ “Minik: The Lost Eskimo”‚ explorer Robert Peary introduced the protagonist‚ Minik‚ to western culture which led to the American citizens to exclude him.

Lost Cause? Not in Lincoln The movie Lincoln‚ directed by Steven Spielberg‚ is a good representation of Civil War history with major emphasis on emancipation and the Thirteenth Amendment. One thing to notice is that this recent movie does not jump onto the Confederate Lost Cause bandwagon like many of the older movies I saw in the past. It shows that the Lost Cause view of the Civil War is beginning to fade away in modern day era but also shows the influences of present day view on Civil War history
