        As a 10th grade student taking the Business Math course, I found that lesson 9, which was teaching me about Federal Income Taxes, was a difficult subject for me. I was tempted to give up, guess, ask for help, etc, but instead, and persevered through. This video helped me, and provided insight into my problem, and I ended up passing with a wonderful grade.

        My friend Garret has a drone business its cool He just bought this drone that is as big as me. It has thermal vision and night vision and can fly as high as commercial airplanes, He said he was gonna use it for the police to do a night watch in Branson west. Drones are pretty cool though, oh yeah He also has this one that you have to use a VR camera and joystick, its really fun. Drones are definitely the future! Its also crazy to think they said drones would be a 42 billion dollar business next year.

        It would be a wonderful thing if you could also start one for other occupations such as lawyers, doctors, nurses, dancers, film makers, photographer and ect. I would love if you would think about this and perhaps talk a little about it in Science Live. Thankyou.
