》Jeenn Lee Hsieh 实验范文 Example Essay:
Help from one's family is a great advantage to one's achieving success, in the faster and easier way. Now more than in the past, it is really fortunate to be with the family's help just as it is very unfortunate to be without. In this competitive society, there is no such thing as a self-made person because--like it or not-- you will reach your goals only with the help of others, particularly your family members, in terms of financial stability and career potential.
To start with, freedom from the pressure of money, or rather the lack of it, can contribute to one's confidence in the financial credibility. For instance, those young people from well-to-do families may become aware that rarely do they have to achieve success the hard way. In contrast, most of their peers from families that are short of money must depend largely on their own to succeed economically. As a rule, the richer the family you are from; the better are your chances to triumph. Truly, stories have repeatedly been told about persons starting from scratches to prosperity; nevertheless, these examples are exceptions that prove the rule. And this is exactly why such fate-changing "role models", who (without counting on help from the family) are able to work their way to high places where they stand, deserve to be widely and deeply admired.
Also, there is no secret that being successful in life is often associated with one's recommendable educational background. This implies your reliance on your family to pay for your college education in the hope of having a rewarding career. It is the same today as it was in the past that higher education is usually expensive to get in and through, even though the effort is worthwhile. Education being concerned with the money factor, parents who can afford it are anxious to send their children to get career preparation either because they went to university or they did not. This goes to illustrate the importance of a financially supportive family. On the other hand, young people with low-income parents might as well move up the economic ladder, but the question would be at what price?
Nowadays, in order to achieve economic and career success, the need to benefit from help provided by family members is more obvious than before. Without such help, the road to success seems often under construction. For those young people who can make use of the financial advantage, there appears to be always a short cut to success.
