For example, when you were a teenager were you signing deals with record labels and traveling around the country to perform? Late in October of 1961, The Beach Boys recorded demos of their first two surfing songs, which hit the charts and scored them a record deal with Capitol Records. (Kemp) Their hit single “Good Vibrations” and the album “Pet Sounds” joined the other two songs on the charts. These four are generally known as the band’s greatest hits. In the late 60’s Brian Wilson suffered from a nervous breakdown and stopped touring. He claimed that everything he was doing for the group was too much.

Gary once again possesses all of those characteristics. Despite the fact that Gary had a high IQ and an affinity for drawing, he couldn’t succeed more socially. He frequently skipped school at age 12 to go drinking and dropped out of school at age 14. Because of Gary’s impulsiveness, he spent most of his life in jail. His offenses ranged from murder to con scams. Gary killed people he didn’t know at all for what would seem like no reason. All of the offenses ended in Gary being sentenced to the death penalty.

Even after his death, Wal-Mart continues to expand and grow in other countries. Wal-Mart is considered one of the top ten global companies today.
