text: My personal experience is a great one. I have two older brothers. One is 31 and the other 27. My older brother just finished his masters degree in marketing and is now working on his own company not only trying to take that far past his expectations, but is also going around the U.S. doing speech and debate contest. The other one is a high school graduate who is now working at the OTHER_NAME hotel as the head bar manager. Both great jobs, but different life styles. There is one major difference between the two though. One has gone of to college and the other stopped at high school. RELATIVE_NAME my 27 year old brother has had a great life so far, but always having his burden of not going to college. The reason is, is that he didn't have a good enough GPA. He played sports his whole life and was the star. He had one to many injuries though to keep on going. By the time he realized that he wouldn't be getting a scholarship because he was done getting hurt and didn't want to play was when he also realized that he couldn't get into college because of his grades.
