Birth
My name is Hines Beckman. I was born in the slums of Germany. My dad was always drunk, and got fired many times. My mother was a teacher, but she made little money, just enough to rent a super small house, get us food, and clothing. I was a little luckier then others, until both of my parents were killed. They were murdered. I had a choice to make. -
The Choice
At the age of 12, I decided, seeing how both of my parents
are dead, I bought a ticket to go to America. The trip was really
long and boring, seeing how I threw up almost every 2 hours. -
New York State
One week later, as we approach New York, I can see something green standing on a big stone. I then realize that it is The Statue of Liberty. I feel my eyes water up, as I realize I made it. -
The Yanks
When I turn 21, I ask the New York Yanks coach if I could play ball with his team to show him how good I am. After playing a ball game, he realizes I could be a huge threat at stealing bases when I get on one. I'm signed for a starting pay of $2,000 a year. -
Leaving New York, going to P.A.
After winning my fifth world series championship, I retired with a lot of money, and a few good friendships. I move to Pennsylvania to take up farming. -
Farming
I get married at the age of 35, have two kids, and make $1,000 dollars a year from farming. When I turn 50, I have almost $50,000 dollars I spend, save, and share. Life is good, really good.
