| We are truly pleased to help. |

| With respect to veterans, I am at once keenly aware of being American at the same time that I am also immediately conscious of the fact that I hate war; and I believe firmly that the wars in Iraq and Afghanistan, like Vietnam, could and should have been avoided. I own the domain name www.endwar.org and have not yet had a chance to do anything with it. I count myself fortunate to have been born in 1957, since this resulted in my being able to benefit from a period of about five years, with the close of the Vietnam war, when not only was the draft entirely abolished in the United States, but the government never even collected information concerning those of us who were of draft eligible age at that time, for several years. |
| Still, I am almost a veteran. This photo of me with the M-60 machine gun is an authentic photo. I lived with the rebels of the FMLN in El Salvador for many months in 1992. But I did not fight; I am a historian of revolution and its consequences in Latin America. I was sympathetic to the rebels. That is why I was interested in them and chose to live with them for some time as part of an immersion experience for my doctoral dissertation. Once, I was talking to a woman guerrillera who was telling me about her husband, a fighter who was terribly wounded (but recovered) from a land mine. And without thinking I asked her in Spanish, “una mina nuestra”? One of our mines? And she hesitated slightly and said “yes.” Later, I cringed to think that these land mines where indeed part ‘mine’. Only a few years ago did the US government finally admit that it trained people as torturers in El Salvador; and I am pleased that I was on the other side. We thought that the revolution was going to be a success. I was still young and idealistic and worshipped the poor. Now, 16 years later, at 50, I am a bit more realistic, but still a dreamer. |
| StatementsofPurpose.com is now a very successful business and, as is said by many of my clients: ¨I want to give something back.¨ This is why I help veterans with their Personal Statement for Graduate School entirely free of charge. I am a humanitarian thinker who focuses on select groups of people who have experienced profound misery as part of their challenges in life. I feel sorry for prisoners too, but few of them go to graduate school. Now, of course, most young veterans of Iraq and Afghanistan are in college. I expect to get more privileges in the years to come as they graduate and go on to graduate school. |
| I am originally from Indiana, in the USA, just north of the State of Kentucky and this Marine in the photo is from Kentucky. He is famous in the Marine Corp for this photo and affectionately referred to as ¨The Marlboro Man.¨ This now very famous photograph is sometimes described by important photographers as the greatest war photograph of all time. And I have followed his story. What most interests me is that if you look closely, you see the kind of damage taking place that is so very often permanent. This man suffered no serious physical injury; it is all inside. He came home and married his high school sweetheart but she left him because he tried to strangle her while sleeping almost on a nightly basis (before he woke up from the nightmare of Fallujah, Iraq, the fiercest battle of the war). He has a pension that enables him to live quite comfortably in Kentucky, for PTSD. For many like him, life continues; but it is too often a shambles. I laud those who do recover and I want to contribute to this recovery by helping them with their personal statements. |
| I have helped several veterans of the conflict in Vietnam who are generally a bit older than I am. I frequently produce model essays for clients in their 50s, even some in their 60s. And I encourage you, if you are a Vietnam veteran, let me help! It is free. I also help people in the area of nursing with their undergraduate nursing statements (but only in this area can I generally accept undergraduate work)—I have helped a few nurses coming home from Iraq. This is a very beautiful experience for me, indeed a privilege, since I feel this is a way to show my gratitude for their service and the sacrifices that they made. The war in Iraq was not their fault and I feel strongly that they should be given some degree of preference in U.S. institutions of higher learning—for the simple reason that they are veterans. I too have made peace with a past that has always had a tendency to come back and haunt me one more time. I am gifted, however, at least insofar as I am able to produce excellent Personal Statements. I would not charge my brothers and sisters who have lost legs, arms, little pieces of their souls, especially those who were drafted and those who volunteered when they were still too young to have a clear idea of what they were doing. |
| I work with a lot of older--for graduate school 35+--people. People tend to use my service to help to compensate for some aspect of their application that makes them feel insecure: low grades, being much older than the typical student, their own history of psychological problems, etc. I especially enjoy being able to serve older clients and help them to explain why they have not arrived at this point until now. I feel strongly that older candidates have much to contribute. Also, almost one quarter of my clients are black and well over half are people of color. I stress the importance of life-long learning and I encourage Vietnam vets, in particular, to go back to school. Personally, another reason for putting the picture of me with the machine gun in El Salvador here on my web site is because it illustrates the way that one never knows exactly where graduate school will take them—it is very exciting. I was researching my dissertation at this time, 1992, and the rebels were waiting to turn their weapons in to the United Nations. It was a most valuable learning experience. |
| Currently, thanks to your patronage, www.statementsofpurpose.com has become highly successful and I now personally only do the two final revisions, once before the model essay is sent to you, and again after you have had a chance to provide some feedback. But revisions move quickly because I am very practiced at what I do. So, now, I have time to work on a book that I will be publishing here on the website very soon. It is entitled Obama Rocks: The Healing of America and it will be available on www.ObamaRocks.info within the next few weeks (the site is not yet available). |
| I regret that I simply do not have time to help the legions of Iraq veterans who need College Admission Essays (except in the area of Nursing). You may feel free to write and ask but I will not be able to attend to you in most cases, since Grad School Application Essays keep me busy enough. Be sure and come back when you want to go to grad school! I should still be here. |
| The U.S. Marine Corps' ¨Marlboro Man.¨ Taking a Break During the Battle for Falluja, Iraq, October, 2004 |
| There are now far more Vietnam veterans that have taken their own lives at some point after coming home than died in Vietnam; many more, with the number continuing to grow at staggering rates as veterans age. I feel for them. I want to do something for veterans. I am concerned, in particular, for those men whose lives were wrecked in Vietnam--drafted by force without the resources to fight the draft, or escape it as the rich guys could do. Before I sobered up, I camped out on Federal (Railroad) Property with alcoholic Vietnam Vets that I met at a soup kitchen in Champaign-Urbana Illinois where I was going to graduate school a little more than ten years ago in TESOL. One had food stamps in several states and would get a couple of gallons of whiskey and hop the freight trains. He invited me to go--it is a shame that I could not. I enjoyed listening to their stories very much. |
| I too have suffered from Post-traumatic-stress Disorder and bouts of clinical depression similar to what has afflicted so many Veterans, from Vietnam on. (Partly, I think, from being a historian of torture.) Now, the PTSD numbers are skyrocketing for veterans coming back from Iraq and Afghanistan, especially the former. We are losing broad swaths of a generation in America. Many come home and spend the rest of their lives trying to put themselves back together again—and many fail. And they are going to jail by the thousands--although this is not talked about much--beating their wives up, killing them in dozens of cases. Check out the alcoholism rates yourself for veterans returning from Iraq on the Internet. As a recovering alcoholic, I myself understand this all too well. If I were coming home from 15 months in Iraq, I would get drunk too. |

Why Our Prices are So Reasonable Compared to Our Competition.
Helping people with their Personal Statement or Statement of Purpose (different phrases for the same
thing) is big business on the Internet. No one really knows for sure since it is not regulated in any
way; but it is estimated that hundreds of thousands of students seek help each year with their
Statement, because advanced study is so central
to what they want for their future, and the future of their children. A well written Statement often
results in scholarship awards of tens of thousands of dollars—in other words, it is generally a good
investment for both the long and short term, a win/win situation. As a result, there are now well over
100 services providing Personal Statement of Purpose assistance on the Internet and all have invested
huge amounts of resources in an attempt to become competitive and stay that way in the search
engines. We here at www.statementsofpurpose.com, for example, are currently spending well over
$2,000 a month in Search Engine Optimization (SEO) alone. Thankfully, we are based in Nicaragua,
the poorest country after Haiti in the hemisphere, and our SEO Team is also based in Nicaragua,
where wages and the cost of living are very low. Furthermore, our writing team is based in Latin
America as well, Chile, Bolivia, Mexico, etc. For one reason or another, family, the beach, economic
living, etc., all of our writers choose to live primarily in Latin America; most are at least semi-retired.
For the last five years, we have kept a paid announcement on www.google.com which only appears in
Latin America (thus making it affordable), www.statementsofpurpose.com/editing.html. With this
add, over time, we have been able to find and maintain a team of North American (U.S. and Canadian)
writers with advanced degrees in a variety of disciplines: Law, Nursing, Public Administration,
Education, Biology, etc. Most are retired but still young enough to enjoy helping others achieve their
dreams. Most importantly, they work for less than professional writers who live in the U.S. and
Canada; it is primarily this that enables us to keep your cost down to a very reasonable price, because
we pass this savings on to you, the client. Finally, Dr. Edinger personally reviews and revises your
Statement both before and after he sends it to you, assuring you of state-of-the-art quality.
Our prices are much more reasonable than our major competitors; www.accepted.com, for example,
based in New York, charges $650.00 if you are willing to wait, and $850.00 if you are in a hurry. This
seems very ‘First World’ to us. We invite you to become part of a growing portion of those
purchasing assistance with their Personal Statement of Purpose on the Internet who are very glad that
they turned to www.statementsofpurpose.com to take advantage of the great value of our full,
interview based service with custom, key, strategic questions sent to you personally by Dr. Edinger.
Most people miss out because they do not know what is important to put into their personal
statement—and what is not. And this can be expensive because universities are generally very wealthy
institutions that give away billions of dollars of scholarship money to graduate students—but only to
those that have very well-written Statements. It is best to seek professional help and no one is better
at this than we are. They just charge more money.
