Do You Wanna Be Famous??

As I read seventeen's article Study Proves Kids Today Just Want To Be Famous I found it intresting how in just 25 years students went from being intrested in docotors, teachers, and finace to being intrested in athlets, pop stars and actors. This got me thinking why would students just want there name to be out in the world so a bunch of people know about them and getting paid the most? Why would they not want to help others? Yes I must admitt I would like to be famous but I also think that it is necesary to help others. This helps me learn that prior to my time people were more worried about there education and the education of others. This is revelant to me because yes I think it would be cool to be famouse but so do a lot of people. I can connect to this because most of the people in my generation and younger are going to grow up be in movies or such and it will be really cool to be able to say I went to middle or high school with them. This relates to the world around me because who knows where or what my friends are going to end up doing and if they do become famous who knows if I will have influnced why they went there. This opens me up to a new possibility of maybe becoming an actor or a singer. This makes me wonder why do kids just want to be famous? Why has job choices changed so much in just 25 years? Will any generation ever get back to being more intrested in education? Some statistics that got to me where how the percentage of what people wanted to be preatty much just flip floped. If we dont take notice of this I am not sure anything will end bad but I am preatty sure that if we dont start caring about our learning than education will not be as good as it could be. I personally find this to be quite intresting but I also find it to be concerning that we are not takeing our education as serious.
