If i were to describe my powerpoint in a small phrase it would be( very informational and description).

1. My Austin Colony
Rene Hidrogo

2. My arrival
• I came to Texas to settle and grow crops to make
money so I can develop a successful future as a
cattle grower and buyer/seller. And I had arrived there
from horseback with a large cart. Also, I have
qualified for this land because I’m an honest man and
I can work hard and achieve my responsibilities of
being a land owner and citizen. And I’ve had qualified
for 2000 acres of land. It was harsh and pretty hot on
horseback with a large cart attached to it, but I made
it through the hot temperatures.

3. My visit
• At first when I came to Austin’s Colony I thought that this
was going to be a bust and that I’m going to waste all my
money on something that Isn't going to be successful in
this Colony and this might be a waste of time. But as I
got to know this Colony and as I got around this place,
and I noticed that this place Isn’t too bad and that there’s
some chance that I’m might be successful.

4. 1822
• In this year I had a total of 1,000 dollars to invest. And I’m
gong to determine my acreage by using the number of my
family to see how much land I qualify. So I qualified for 1680
acres because I have 1 adult male, 1 wife, 4 children, 1 pet.
And since its 12 cents per acre, which was a total of 201.60
dollars and 67.20 dollars per yearly payments. So I started
with 1,000 dollars and I subtracted 67.20 dollars for my
payment and I was left with 932.80 dollars and an average of
1680 acres. I am going to raise 5 acres of cotton, lumber, and
7 acres of cattle, and ended up costing me 120 dollars worth
of crops. So my investment return was x1 for cotton x3 for
lumber and x1 for cattle. And I got a total gross income of 170
dollars and now I have a balance of 982.80 dollars.

5. 1822
• So it’s the end of the year and I have to pay my land with
67.20 dollars and now I have a bank balance of 915.60.
And for the past time this year I have realized that I have
made some exceptional process in this Colony.

6. 1823
• So trouble in Mexico made export of cotton difficult
and the investment return for cotton was x0 and
for lumber it slacked since Mexico was
discouraged more and had a x1 investment return
and it was a good year for cattle and I got an
investment return of x3. So my total investment in
crops was 500 dollars and got a total gross
income of 750 dollars, for a total return and bank
balance of 1165. 60 dollars. And then the rest of
the year there was no crops and had a still a total
of 1165.60 dollars in my bank.

7. 1823
• And then the rest of the year there was no
crops and had a still a total of 1165.60
dollars in my bank. And so far at the end of
this year I have fully changed my mind
about this Colony and that I would resume
in my successful progress.

8. 1824
• It was time for my 3rd land payment of 67,20 dollars and I
subtracted that from my bank balance and now I have a
total of 1098.40 dollars. So the last and final year I invest
1000 dollars in crops. So 60 acres in cotton, 60 acres in
lumber, and 40 acres in cattle. And the time past and my
investments returns came in and I got x3 because the
Mexicans were being a little friendlier. And for lumber I
got x2 and cattle x2. So my total gross income of crops
was 2100 dollars. And I had 98.40 dollars worth in my
bank balance of 2198.40 dollars.

9. 1824
• So at the end of the last year, I decided to resume living
in San Felipe and I got a bonus of 600 dollars and ended
up with a final profit of $2798.40.

10. Conclusion of 3 years in Austin’s
Colony
• So I finished everything and I was very
successful from the last 3 years and I was
happy with the total bank balance of
$2798.40. And I’ve realized that you
shouldn’t be a a person that reads books
by the cover or something like that. You
should just know that you can be trustful in
any situation.

11. Conclusion of 3 years in Austin’s
Colony
• And I am staying in San Felipe in Austin’s
Colony. And now were in San Felipe to
create a better future and hopefully create
a better life in this Colony.
