Pro fissional Athlete
Education and Training
Degree or Certification-There are no specific degrees or anything to become a professional athlete. There is one educational benefit like getting college scholarships through sports.

In State Schools-It does not say what in state schools offer the program I need.

Training-I say it would take at least 8 years of training to become a professional athlete. That’s means would you would have to play sports all throughout high school and college. While playing sports you have to maintain a healthy body by eating healthy, drinking a lot of water and working out on a daily basis.

Cost for Training and Training-There is no cost for education and training.

Work I will be doing-There will be all kinds of I work I will be doing. The work I will be doing depends on the sport I will be playing. Some other work you’ll need to do is hire a agent so they can negotiate your contracts and other things you need.

Wages-Professional athletes get paid yearly. The average amount of money you earn depending on what sport you play and how good you are, professional athletes get paid $20,000 to $90,000 a year.

Animal Trainer

Degree-The only degree or certification is a completed high school diploma.

In State Schools-The in state schools that offer the program are Baker College of Cadillac, Baker College of Port Huron, Michigan State University, Wayne State and other Colleges.

Training =There is no specific training you need to do to become a animal trainer.
Cost -There is no cost to get the necessary training and education to be a animal trainer.

Work -The work I will be doing is training animals on a daily basis for 10 to 15 minutes a day. It takes 4 to 5 weeks to train a pet dog. If you train guide dogs, security dogs, and customs dog have to learn more so it takes 10 to 12 weeks to train these dogs.
Wages-The average wage for animal trainers who work full time is $13 an hour which is $26,000 a year.

Top ten Careers

1. Professional Athlete
2. Electrician
3. Animal trainer
4. National Guard
5. Animal Caretaker
6. Pet Groomer
7. Veterinarian
8. Bicycle Mechanic
9. Line Worker
10. Horse Trainer

Professional athlete is my number one career because I like traveling a lot and being away from home sometimes. Being a professional athlete you get to travel around U.S. on a daily basis and there are some states I haven’t been to yet that I want to go and visit and see. Another reason why I want to be a professional athlete is because you get to sign a multi - million dollar contract.

Animal trainer is my number three career. I want to be an animal trainer because I love animals and training them would be fun to do. Most trainers earn between $8 and $23 per hour. Animal trainers sometimes train animals who are going to be in movies, TV shows, and commercials.

Myself in Ten Years

In ten years I’ll want to be in the NBA. The money I’ll get from playing in the NBA, I’m going to own an Auto shop business on a degree in Mechanics or auto. The auto shop I’ll own will just be for people who want to get their engine fixed. The reason why people will be able to only get engine fixed is because that’s the only part car I like to work on and nothing else. If you want any other part of your car fixed you can just go to another auto shop and get it fixed. The reason why I want to own a car shop is because I love cars and working on engines will be fun to do.
The money I’ll have from working on cars and playing in the NBA, I will go and buy me a condo, a vacation house and two cars. The condo will be in Maryland. The vacation house I will be in Florida with an ocean view. The car I will be getting will be a 2009 Camero and the other car will be a 2009 Cadillac. The condo will be in D.C. because during the summer that’s where I’ll be staying until the winter comes, and then I will go to Florida.
In my spare I will collect Model cars. There will be one room in my vacation house that will have all the model cars I’ve collected over the years. The model cars will all be my favorite cars from the year 2000 and beyond. I will also be working on car engines in my auto shop in Florida. I’m also going to have 2 children one boy and girl. They both will be going to school in Maryland. My wife will be charming, nice and beautiful.

My ideal school

The school I created is a lot like a normal school but more fun. In the school there are two lunch rooms so all the students won’t be in one lunch room at the same time. When you go to lunch it will be like a restaurant. Also instead of tables in the lunch room there will be booth’s so the students can relax and be comfortable eating. In the lunch each booth will have menus so you can order whatever you want and there will be waitresses to serve you and take your order. The school also has two gyms one for class and the other one is for practice for sports and for school games. The other reason we have two gyms is for class, so if we play a sport for boys like hockey or basketball the girls can go to the other gym if they don’t won’t to play and it’s the same thing for the boys.
Every class in the school has either a big 60 gallon fish tank or a pond in the class room. The pond will have frogs, fish and little baby turtles. The pond will have a fence around it so the frogs won’t get out. The fish tanks will have 2 sharks, 1 baby octopus and all sorts of fish in it. Every subject class has their own hallway. Only the electives share hallways. The electives you can choose from are shop 1 & 2, foods 1 & 2, painting, drawing 1 & 2, gym, weights, personal fitness, yoga, sports 1 & 2, sculpture, jewelry, fashion, sewing, and any language class you to take. In the subject classes everything is brand new like the desks, supplies, lights, TV’s, books. In the hallways and every room in the school has energy saving light bulbs. The reason for energy saving light bulbs is so the school will save energy on all the lights.

There are two chill spots one for girls and one for boys. In the girls chill spot they will have whatever they like to do. In the boys chill spot there are foosball games and a pool table, air hockey table. There are 3 soda machines and snack machines and 4 TV’s one in each corner of the boy’s chill spot. Students get more passing time in between classes. You get 20 minutes before you go to your next class. Since students get 20 minutes before each class they will get to go to their chill spot and hangout before class.
