Memoirs
I believe authors shouldn't really lie in their memoirs, well if over exaggerating,well its their memoir about their life,but then again authors do it, so their memoirs aren't boring. Then again they do probably for the fun of it and it shouldn't really matter unless its way to obviously fake like " Oh, I took down a platoon of Flying Sharks all by my self single handed".

No Money No problems
I believe the fastest way to make money is to be scamming people or just stealing it.
I think the best way to make money is to start up a business that sells a product that people will use in their everyday lives. I believe the only difference between new money and old money old money is that you start off using money you already have and new money is money you don't have and you make money.

Parents
I've gone through alot of arugements with my parents, like they wouldn't let me get a job and they call me lazy to get a job. They all ways tell me to go to church and stuff, and they send me to church/viet school. I don't really like it, like last 2 weeks ago we had a final for my church school I skimmed through the test and passed with an A-. I also have to do a play this coming saturday,I only have one line"Teach him some stuff". I went against my parents when they thought when I came come from drinking alcohol, I went to play badminton from intill like 9 am to 11 pm , and I come home exhausted thinking I went to drink alcohol. All in all I wanted a job , but my parents won't let me ,then my decision was give up. xD
