In the picture I see it is a bunk house and you can sleep there for only 7 cents. I'm going to be honest people this is no Hampton hotel it's really small and crowded dirty. There are no real beds there it's like they tied  bed sheets to two wooden pieces and said here you go. This place looks so dirty from the picture i mean what could you expect for 7 cents? The best part is your not sleeping alone! strangers sleep across from you and more people sleep on top of you doesn't that feel comfy?.  I would not be able to live like this ,those people lived a harsh reality . This is how they had to live i guess in the time period.

Rags To Riches

 I was once asked Do I think an individual today can rise an individual rise from "rags to riches" like Andrew Carnegie?
In my opinion I believe that someone can rise from rags to riches. You just need that right opportunity and another shot at life. It's possible to do this you need a great idea and it had to be something that will sell really good. If you can come up with an idea for a new laptop operating system that will be better than Mac and Windows and  it is possible.

Don't get me wrong this is not easy. You have to work your ass off to get where you want to successful . There should always be chances to get your ideas across to show people your product. The Technology business is growing everyday.


All you have to do is aim high and shoot for the stars(so cheesy) but you will become successful.

China's factories today Vs the Carnegie's factories of the past

In China Factories today workers work as much as 60 hours a week. Working conditions were very terrible over there. In just three tiny apartments they have about 20 people each. What they feed them is horrible tea and a biscuit is that enough for you? i didn't think so.
 really hot i doubt


 Don't get me wrong the Carnegie's factory wasn't a bowl of sunshine either. They Were basically the same he worked his employees to the death. Safety was not a concern to them they wore two layers of thermals if your cold that'll work. Your around fire we all know how fire feels it's hot and your super tired on top of that.

These workers work hard to the core but for what? if they were getting treated so bad. They
 hours were horrible so was their pay. Times were and still is hard but sometimes people work there way up to the top to become something great.
