After a fun, happy time at Read Across America I realized the most important lesson in life, is that having a kid is a waste of time and money. There are many reasons why kids could take most of your life and money away from you, although kids are fun to be around with, if they get sick its the opposite. A good parent know that this time they are either going to spend all their time and money in the doctors office. Kids are fun and all but there are more reasons to not have kids.
Money in today's world is important since prices on everything has been growing lately. Its hard to take care of one self in today's economy, now imagine taking care of yourself, your partner and your child. This leads often to parents each taking two jobs each to just make ends meet. "Raising a child is 22 percent more costly than it was back in 1960, according to a study released recently by the USDA. Adjusted for 2009 dollars, middle-income parents in 1960 spent a total of $182,857 to raise one child through the age of 17." (Lifetime). Imagine all that money you spend on your kid, could go to paying of your house, or car so that you didn't have to worry about the rent eating you up each month. With the extra money you would be earning, you can take a nice trip to Europe or any other place in the world, without worrying about your kid getting sick or being tired.
Another reason why kids are a bad idea is that you will lose your sanity and your sleep. Your precious sleep, "In general, most healthy adults need seven to nine hours of sleep a night" (Sleep). In the end you will suffer many awakenings when your kid is a baby. You will have to wake up because your baby is crying and you need to put him back to sleep or feed him. Leading to a poor work enthusiasm and lead to you getting fired or getting your pay docked.
In the end the most important lesson in all this is to carefully read and see any hidden messages located, because you never know, you could find the secret of many things like the secret of life being 42.
Hint: look at title and look at the capitalized letters on each words in order.

The Super Bowl
The Super Bowl is one of the major events in all American Sports. Millions of people tune in to watch it that the commercials are one of the reasons people tune in. Many companies spend a lot of money just to get a few seconds during the super bowl. The Super bowl has grown quite a lot ever since the first one ever happened.
Super Bowl I was played on January 15, 1967, following the 1966 regular season. The first ever super bowl was played by the Green Bay Packers and the Kansas Chiefs. The Green Bay packers had won the championship beating them 35 to 10. From than on the super bowl has been played every year for the past 49 years it has been played. The major winner of the super bowl has been the Pittsburgh Steelers with six championships won, the only teams that have successfully beaten the Pittsburgh Steelers have been the Green Bay Packers and the Dallas Cowboys. The "Super Bowl" name was derived from the bowl game, a post-season college football game. The original "bowl game" was the Rose Bowl Game in Pasadena, California, which was first played in 1902 as the "Tournament East-West football game" as part of the Pasadena Tournament of Roses and moved to the new Rose Bowl Stadium in 1923. (NFL).
Super Bowl XLVIII in 2014 had an average audience of 112.2 million viewers, the most watched telecast in U.S. history. Seattle Seahawks victory over Denver Broncos by a score of 43 to 8, it was the most lopsided Super Bowl score in 21 years (Forbes). The super bow is known for its commercials and not only that the amount of money spend in these commercials.A :30 ad in the 2015 Super Bowl cost $4.5 million, the most expensive ad in history and a 12.5% increase from last year’s game. On average, Super Bowl ad rates have grown 10.8% annually.(Forbes).
Its no surprise on how much the super bowl has amounted over the past years. It is going to achieve even more as the love for this sport grows among American people.
