With no father, no college education, no training and very few role models, an organization handed a talented, young, dirt-poor 18-year-old $420,000 per year.
He married his high school sweetheart, was never arrested, never used drugs, and never humiliated his spouse with rumors of an affair.
He was never in the news with so much as a parking ticket. He is an excellent father to his children, constantly supporting them and making them dream big. He’s always involved in their activities too.
20 years later. Same dude. Same maturity. Same wife. Same family.
Reputation is intact. Now earning about $2 million per week. Still one of the greatest basketball players on the planet today.
Lebron has sent over 1000 children to college fully paid for.

Analyze the excerpt above, then tell me your thoughts. If Lebron is making so much money, why is integrity important to him? Think and don't simply tell me "he's the G.O.A.T.," etc., explain it, then explain your thinking.
1. INCLUDE: First Initial, Last Name AND Class Block.
2. Respond in no more than five (5) complete sentences and no less than three (3) complete sentences. (This helps you write more concisely and think more critically.)
3. You MUST comment on at least TWO other posts from any student in any class. Your replies cannot be identical comments on different posts and posting shallow comments such as "I agree" or "I disagree" will earn you a zero. Make sure your reply addresses the comment that you are responding to.
4. Set a weekly alarm or calendar timer. Whatever you do to remember other important events, I'd do the same for this assignment.
5. Don't wait until the last minute. Telling me that you didn't do the assignment on Friday because you broke your leg, for example, on Thursday will not do anything for you when you've had a week. Be responsible and accountable.
CAUTION!! Do NOT embarrass me, yourself, your class, the English department, the school, your family or your upbringing with tasteless, meaningless comments. This is for a grade.
DISCLAIMER: If you do not respond AND comment on TWO others, you will not receive credit for this assignment. If you do not write your name correctly, and I don't see your work, you will not receive credit for this assignment. It's all or nothing.
WARNING: If you post even one second past midnight, your comment might appear to be posted, but as soon as it is opened to be graded, it will automatically delete.
