So when talking about the jobs in my family, I'm going to talk about my dad's business. My dad has companies related to real estate. His company has various types of real estate. He has apartments, houses, land for rental, and he also sells them. When I was young, I saw my dad and my mom doing this business, and it made me like the real estate industry because I think it's fun. You can choose the land to build buildings, build houses, and sell them. I think these are cool things that I really want to do when I grow up. Now I'm thinking about learning more about the real estate industry. So, this is my dream, and I believe this job, this business, earns a lot of money as well. That's why I really like it, and this is my dad's job, my dad's business. Thank you.
