Opportunities to achieve wealth in a market economy
Governments can never have full control over an economy. For an efficient economy, people need to take responsibility for their actions, use their energy and creativity for their well being and the benefits of the whole society. Through competition and giving people a chance to make one’s own choices, a market economy, though not perfect, has given many countries the best opportunity to achieve wealth.
In a market economy, strong competition among businesses does not allow them to stay the same, but they have to change and make the best of their products. At first, there are phones that we can call only, and then we have phones which we can also text with. Then phones have cameras to take pictures with, and now, there are touch screen phones. Of course, most people nowadays buy the touch phones because it’s new and modern. The more new and modern the products are, the more people will buy it, and also, the money that the companies will get from the products increases. For that reason, companies have to make more new products. The better products they have, the better their position in competition with other companies which are in the same industry. In a market economy, the price of a product is the price at which the companies are willing to sell, and which consumers are willing to buy. Therefore, new and more modern products will enjoy higher price and bring more profit.
Market economy gives the businesses their freedom to make their own choices and decisions, allow the business people to have more creativity on inventing new products. One example is the US, which has always been a market economy since the early 1800’s. From the World Culture and Geography textbook, “The United States has a market economy, in which individuals and businesses can make their own choices about what to buy and sell.” People traded by themselves, make their own businesses. Producers make products from what the clients usually buy then they will set their own prices for the products. In market economy, people can make their own decisions in business. Businesses decide the wage to pay the workers, and the price of their products. Businesses pay a lot of money to the creative people so they would think of and invent more new and creative products for the companies. Like the Google Inc., they give their employees a 10% pay raise and a $1,000 bonus next year to keep the good and creative employees. Then the companies would sell the products and clients would buy it at a higher price and the companies would make lots of money. People whom do businesses can be more creative with their works and make their own choices on making the products.
In the “How much land does a man need” story – by Leo Tolstoy, Pahóm, a Russian peasant, was very rich by buying, selling, and negotiating to have cheaper price lands. He moved to a larger land and had grown the crops a lot then sold it to get money. This land business made him a lot wealthier. This story shows how the market economy helps citizens make their own decisions in business, work with full personal responsibility, and how it can help them become wealthy and live a happy life. If we have a good opportunity in business, we have to use it immediately so we won’t miss the big chance and we will get lots of money from the opportunity.
Market economy helps businessman understand and have more experience in businesses because they will have to make their own decisions, have their own responsibility about what they chose to do. Market economy helps lots of countries or people become wealthier in different ways. People who do businesses can be more open minded with their creativity and it will help, not only a country, but the whole nation becomes richer and stronger.

RTL project!
This is mine and David's project. we also did the essay:
The story “The Wise Old Woman” is about an emperor who has sent all old people from the village to die in the mountains. However, a young farmer disobeyed the emperor and hid his old mother in the basement. Then, Lord Higa threatened the village to be destroyed and he gave them complete three challenging tasks if they wanted to be free. The old woman solved all three tasks and Lord Higa began to gain respect for old people. This folktale has many themes however we think that the theme is “wisdom comes from experiences.”
Wisdom can help you solve many problems. In the story, the village was to be destroyed by Lord Higa. He would let them alone only if they would complete three problems. The quote “I have kept my aged mother hidden beneath the floor of my house, and it is she who solved each of your problems,” (pg.212) shows that the old mother was able to come up with an answer to each problem through her wisdom. Because she solved all the problems, it shows that experience can help you solve many challenges in life.
Experiences and wisdom can also help us a lot in our lives and sometimes, it might also save our life. “The Wise Old Woman” told us about how the old mother solved the problems from the Lord Higa and she saved the whole village from being conquered. ““Even in such a small village there is much wisdom,” he declared, “and its people should be allowed to live in peace.”” (pg. 212).
This quote shows that thanks to the old mother, the village had not been harmed and asked to do the hard requests anymore. Wisdom can not only protect you from being harmed but also from being killed.
The story “The Wise Old Woman” is about an old woman that is very wise and she saves the whole village. She had a lot of experiences already from her past, so she knows how to do all Lord Higa’s requests. This story teaches us a very important lesson which is “Wisdom comes from experiences.” Because this is a folktale, we recommend it to small children at the age of 6 and 6th graders and all people who love traditional Japanese folktales.

Future in Dreams ( not fix yet )
“Ladies and gentlemen, for the first time in 2010, Hollywood presents you “Renew Christmas” and pleased let me introduce to you Charlie Wason in the roll of Rockley. Well will premier this movie on December 27th.” - The MC said as Charlie appeared on the bright, colorful stage. He was wearing his black suit, black tie and black shoes. He also wore a diamond ring on his right hand and a diamond earring on his left ear. Charlie was a very famous actor and he was very popular. He liked to tell jokes, helping people… ON SCREEN so that’s why many people liked to watch his movies because they didn’t know the real him. In real life, he scared of little dust because it could make him dirty so he always sat in his Limousine. He also disliked babies and children because he thought they are annoying. He went to bars and clubs almost every single day and he used his money on clothes, diamonds, while all the magazines said he used it for charity. Many actresses and actors got annoyed and hated him for his arrogant and selfishness. He always thought himself as the best and insulted other people.
“Hey dude! What the heck make you so stupid, eh? Can’t you understand what does YELLOW mean? I want this flower on this shirt to be YELLOW, NOT red! Go and tell that guy to change it! MAKEUP!” – He shouted at his assistant and gave him an angry glared. His entire makeup people ran towards him and started to give him a makeover for the next shoot. Charlie is shooting his new movie, “Shout it out Loud” and he was the main actor in it. He was very proud of himself to be the main character in the movie and he laughed and offended other co-actors and actress.
People around him started to get annoyed by him and hate him more days to days and they started to pass by him.

After years came by, the magazines and some of the star television shows started to get bored of interviewing him so they stopped. The audience started to forget about him and they didn’t watch his movies anymore. No produces wanted to invite him to act in their movies anymore and he became a No-One-Knew person. He became poorer and poorer for spending his money without getting any in. He couldn’t understand why people hated him so much, while he was the most popular person on earth. But then, he heard some people looked at him and said, “Hey! Does this face look similar to you? He is the old actor that had never let anyone borrow anything and always said he did charity, while he didn’t. Remember?” After heard that, he started to wonder how come people think he was like that and he thought back about his actions in the past. He understood and regretted! When he went home, he looked at the mirror, and he had been shocked by seeing himself with white hair and big white beard that he didn’t even notice for so many years.
“OMG!!!! What the heck is happening to me? Ahhhhhhhh! Why do I have such big beard and white long hair like this? Is anyone there? Is anyone there? Ahhhhhhh!” – He screamed and jumped up from the bed. He found himself on being surrounding by his maids with their surprising eyes and they were wondering what had happened to him. Usually what we would do was yelling at them and said “What are you standing for? Go do your works man!” but this time, he smiled at them and said “I just had a weirdest dream ever, but I LOVE it! Are you guys’ hungry? Cuz I am! Let go out and have dinner shall we?” Everybody was surprise by his invitation but they were all happy and they answered him “Sure! Why not?”, and they went out to eat dinner. From that day, he was very nice to everyone. He did charity, helped many people and everybody loved him.
