Birth Date
I was born in Beijing, China. I was an only child. The city was great but it was so hard for my parent's to find jobs, because the city is filled with people everywhere. When I grew up I knew I wanted to get a fresh start with many job opportunities so I wont have to go through what my parents did, so thats why I decided to go to America. -
Moving to America
Information about Angel IslandWhen I finally got to Angel Island there was such a relief lifted off my shoulders. The journey over sea was forever. The inspection was quite easy compared to the stories I heard about Ellis Island inspections. -
Gold Rush
The Gold RushThen there was the thrilling gold rush that I was very intrested in trying. So when I got enough money to buy my supplies I headed out into the gold rush area. I worked for a while with little to none gold findings until one day when I hit the river flled with gold. I was set with money and was not going to ever have to work again. -
Working on Railroad
After finding the gold I was unwisely spending my money through the years and became very poor. To sustain my regular life and keep my home I started working on the "Transcontinental Railroad". The work days were alot more difficult then searching for gold. Everyday I would have to get up and go nail steel beams together for the tracks. -
Booming Railroads
After the "Transcontinental Railroad" was built more and more railroads started to be built. I started giving up some of my land, I had for railroads to be built, The money I earned for giving up some of my land started to add up and I was becoming more wealthy once again. This time I was not going to spend it like I did before. -
What is still to come
I am now enjoying my successful achievements and risks I took through my years. I have luckily choose wisely what to try and not to try for money. The newest invention I have heard that may become a major supplier for people are "Sky Scrappers". Who know's what I will try next ?
