Arn Tellem, a sports agent, is my hero. I first became aware of him when I wanted to be a sports agent and started searching for famous sports agents. Arn Tellem came up and it said that some of his players are Hideki Matsui, Jermaine O’Neill, and Tracy Mcgrady. Those are some of my favorite players and I like that Arn Tellem is their agent. Arn Tellem is my hero.

The average sports agent earns around one hundred thousand dollars a year. You need a bachelors degree or higher in college and some work experience. A sports agent collects fees and other payments. They also find a good team for the player and help work out a good contract. Sports agents have many other jobs also, but those are the main ones.

Arn Tellem went to Haverford college and graduated in 1976. He is very smart and he has gone far. He wanted to be a sports agent for a long time and strived hard to get there. He made it into the business and it took patience to get many good players and help them through their careers. Arn Tellem tried hard and succeeded.

If you have a positive contribution to society, you can become famous and popular. People will give you better job opportunities if you are in something that helps society and is popular. You will have more things to do and more people to help. Helping society can help you through your career.

I will get into high school classes that can get me to college and help me to my career. I have a goal of going to college and majoring in the subjects that are required to become a sports agent. My lifetime goal is to be a good agent and have over three famous and very popular players for my agency. My goals will hopefully come true and I will try hard to get there.
