Please improve the language as well. Make it native.
To prepare for my studies at Cambridge and my career goals, I have constantly polished my skills. At Fosun Capital, I was fascinated by how financial modeling could apply to real companies, providing investors with a clear financial picture and knowing how to make a well-thought-out investment decision based on market development. In quantitative research, I successfully identified a set of portfolios with the lowest risk and highest return by Python, better understanding the financial market.

Advertising Question
Writing Assignment Help
Advertising is an area that has a stereotype and not everyone accepts the way it is presented including my uncle. I believe it’s necessary to utilize what I learned so far to demonstrate a structure of the true advertising world. To let my uncle convincing it’s an interesting major and worth focusing on during my college years. Firstly, my uncle is not familiar with advertisement as a major. The current judgment is related to all the information based on negative experiences. Also, he might also think the job types are less, and I can’t earn much payment. For example, I can show him the data first. Advertisement is the key driver in the economy with over 100 billion spending per year. In the future, I can have the chance to engage with consumer spending. And the clients wish I can use my own critical thinking to sell their product successfully in the marketplace. That’s 70% of the market area. The career positions are a great diversity of options. Those positions you never heard of before. Account executives, public relations managers, advertising agencies, sales directors, marketing managers, and so on. The earning in these positions are similar to other jobs in the business. I wish you could know advertising is the major has higher similar with business majors compared to other non-business majors. Therefore, what I stated above answered the critics about advertisement can’t be a good major because it doesn’t have development in career path. Elderly perspective is restricted by their own experiences which lead to advertising is not a great major. By exploring the information they don’t know is helping them reconsider their old-fashion view builds on early decades of advertising.
Furthermore, my uncle told me advertising created an unrealistic view of our society. Let’s analyze the negative and positive effects of advertising on TV. We can’t deny part of advertising created an unnecessary need for consumers who watch TV and social media on their phones. Some advertisements mislead youngsters. In addition, advertising can help the business survive and earn more money. Also, companies need advertising to be funded. Besides, consumers can compare different products at different prices and services. From my perspective, advertising is a field not only can be harmful to society but also can be beneficial to society. Undoubtedly, advertising is double-sided. We have to face different types of company propagandizing their product and services from everywhere. However, we can choose to disregard them. Consumers have the right to judge and think critically. Parents have the right to don’t let their child expose to negative advertisements through education in the household. On YouTube, viewers can avoid all advertising by paying the subscription fee. The government and laws are also taking action to regulate negative advertisements. Overall, the positive of advertising is greater than the negative of advertising. Therefore, the positive and negative of advertisement both exists in our society. But if we want, we have the right to avoid negative advertising in our daily lives.
