<p>Common App Essay:
My uncle who was arrested for insider trading and how growing up he taught me the importance of greed and how he liked to quote gordan gecko. My curiosity made me watch the movie, Wall Street and how the quote, "Stop going for the easy buck and start producing something with your life. Create, instead of living off the buying and selling of others. " made me interested in entrepreneurship.
