THE SOCIAL CLASS BORN IN

The social class I was born in was the lower class. It’s a typically homeless, and unemployment with poverty set of class. Sometimes people in the lower class are known to lack medical care, food and all basic necessities. Almost everyone in the near society was in this class hence the area we lived had of drug abusers and criminals.

Being born in a poor family missed the chances of attending good school like other children. Therefore I obviously not have the same opportunity to attend to attend a top quality school on my lower education levels. Many learning institutions do have scholarship but I would not able to obtain or even know if such programs existed.

Having living in the lower class society for almost all of my life has made it harder for me to achieve goals here are some of the reasons. The first reason was the negative mindset in our societies that we of the lower class we would probably won’t make it in life I always expected to fail. Therefore I did not even try. Since most of criminal activities were happening in my society, I lost focus in my goals and if you have an idea where you need to go but lacked focused direction that is all in vain. I aslo tried to do too much at a very small time frame such as trying to be financially free. Trying to achieve too many goals lead to procrastination and frustration after some time I realized the list of goals were becoming too impossible to achieve.

My goals were difficult to achieve since I was living on the past of our society regardless of my current situation.

Occupation: This determines someone social class, for example a politician and a hawker are in two distinct classes. Here a politician of a higher class than a Hawker.

Education: A person with a bachelor’s degree is of a higher class than someone with primary school education level.
