 Meet Matthew.  He is a freshman in high school and he has a dream.  His dream is to play drums in a rock band.  Unfortunately, his parents think that the trumpet is a great instrument and can't see spending money on something like a drum kit.  But after he sees some local bands, he is more determined to follow his dream.  And he won't let "The Man" get him down.  Well, the man is really his parents.  But he is determined not to let his frugal dad or even the IRS who takes a bite out of his first paycheck stand in the way of his dream.  Do you have a dream that you would be willing to do just about anything for?
