Write a 150-word essay in which you explain what you believe Benjamin Franklin thinks is the road to wealth based on his writing. Use evidence from the poem to support your response. Please

In his piece, "The Way to Wealth", Benjamin Franklin states that laziness and taxes are "killing" all of us. The only way to be successful is to overcome everything in your way and spend all of your money wisely to be successful and wealthy. Franklin states that if you follow all of these guidelines it will lead you to be more wealthy and happy in life. Franklin specifically states "Leisure is time for doing something useful; this leisure the diligent man will obtain, but the lazy man never; so that, as Poor Richard says, a life of leisure and a life of laziness are two things.", meaning that you can still be useful in your leisure time, but if you're lazy you won't ever get anything done.

free time is when all my homework and chores have been done for the day and i am "free" to do things that i enjoy doing.

usually i spend time watching television. as my favorite tv shows come on at specific times, i make sure that i finish my homework and chores well before the shows. otherwise i will have to miss them. mostly i manage to watch the shows but sometimes extra homework or chores may cause me to miss a show or two, but it is rare. anyhow if i know that i am definitely not able to catch a show in time, i will just set the video recorder to tape the show sothe evening when the weather is fine, i sometimes go for a stroll around the neighborhood with my friends. this is the time when most the neighbors have come home from work or school. we say hello to those whom we know. they are mostly friendly people and they acknowledge our greetings. once in a while we come upon unfriendly neighbors but we just ignore them and carry on. that i can watch it later.
