I used to believe in the American Dream, which meant a job, a mortgage (按揭), credit cards, success. I wanted it and worked toward it like everyone else, all of us 36 chasing the same thing.

I came upon a shabby house four miles up a winding mountain road 40 the Potomac River in West Virginia. It was41 , full of broken glass and rubbish. I found the owner ,rented it, and 42 a corner to camp in.

We’d all be in 54 if we hadn’t banded together.
The American Dream I believe in now is a shared one. It’s not so much about what I can get for myself; it’s about 55 we can all get by together.
