Class in Session: Money's Victim

Money finds itself to be the center of Chicago and in general, runs a lot of urban areas. Money since its first print in Philly back in the early 1700's has been shaping and molding the future of children. Young kids at good schools, and young kids at bad schools are changing their eye colors to green as they learn how the world works. Money runs society. Just ask Devin. Yeah, I'm calling Devin out in my blog. Partially because, I mean, it's Devin, but I also think he is an interesting, and maybe frightening example of money's effect on children. Devin has announced a few times about his "dreams" of being a psychiatrist. I air quote dreams because I'm not convinced that Devin has thought of what he really wants to do. He has set his goals to solve the equation (Fun*Salary)/Effort to the best of his abilities. I'd say that psychiatrist is a pretty good option, but Devin has attacked his dream job from a monetary viewpoint way too early in his life. Even people with a lesser chance of education and success are drifting towards money and not happiness. Society and class has become increasingly money driven and is influencing where children go, and they are going toward money. The solution? Focus on increasing the "Fun", not the "Money".
