Ronald Reagan: Lifeguard, dish washer
里根:救生员、洗碗工
Reagan lifeguarded for several summers at Rock River in his hometown of Dixon, Ill., while in high school. He reportedly saved 77 lives.
He attended Eureka College in Illinois on a partial football scholarship and covered the remaining cost by washing dishes at his fraternity house.
After graduating in 1932, Reagan got a job as a radio sportscaster at WOC in Davenport, Iowa. The radio station paid him $10 per game ($174 in today's dollars).
Reagan, of course, eventually went on to Hollywood.
高中时代的里根曾在家乡狄克逊的罗克河做了好几年的救生员,救起过77个溺水的人。
随后他进入尤里卡学院学习,靠踢足球踢来的奖学金和洗碗工的工资付学费,没让家里掏一分钱。1932年,毕业后的里根在爱荷华州的一家广播电台当起了播报员,当时每播一场比赛,电台只给他10美元。不过后来,他去好莱坞混了。
