Chapter 2

I think before we go much further I should share a little more about my story. As many of you may know, an education cost money. I didn’t worry too much about mounting educational loans because we always hear that we should go to school and with an education you can go further; but, the truth is, “Until higher ed. becomes a safe investment again, prospective borrowers should give greater thought to the financial consequences of seeking an advanced degree”- Robert Applebaum.

I’ve always considered myself an entrepreneur. Taking that into consideration, and after some research, I decided that I would use Ebay as a forum to help raise funds as well as, make contact with people I would normally not be able to. Through my blog, I will post updates on my plans and I hope to share it as it all unravels. I will sometimes post a “sneak peak” into my future plans and we can learn together if they work or not.

Transcript Holders:

The beautifully laminated transcript can be used in a number of ways, and just for those that purchase (and for the next few months):

You not only receive a signed copy of my transcripts, but, you also receive access to me and my story. You can follow me at http://jaxcruz.blogspot.com/ or on www.twitter.com/JaxCruz. I will use these forums to update everyone on the project (where I am currently and where I am going with it), and you will have the opportunity to be a part of this project from the very beginning.

Also, since I am into hospitality and customer service, you can consider me your friend in New York City. This means:

-Did you live in New York and move away? Do you wonder what your old neighborhood looks like? Just send me the address and necessary information and within a few days, I will forward pictures so that you can reminisce.

-Are you coming to visit or live in New York? Anything you are curious about? Just let me know if you need pictures of an area you are looking into and I will forward them to you.

-Do you need an outsider’s opinion? I do not know everything, but I know how to do some research and can give you my opinion.

Thank you for joining me - Jax
