Since he was born, they had decided he wasn’t going to stay at home, that he would just be at home. Even while he was living with his grandparents. When he had went St. Anthony’s he wasn’t old enough for him to go to school so he had stayed there with the other kids while his brother Meiyo had went. When he was living at the detention center they had registered him into high school but he didn’t know how to read or write. He was ashamed, embarrassed, and didn’t tell anyone and just failed all his classes.

Walter wants it so he could become owner of a Liquor store, whereas Beneatha wants to go to go school to become a doctor. Mama gives him the remaining $6,500 of the insurance money, telling him to deposit $3,000 for Beneatha’s education and to keep the last $3,500. Walter agrees, but we come to find out when Bobo arrives that he did not put the money in the bank for his sister that he used all the money for the liquor store and that Willy Harris run off with it all. When this happens during the play it is tough to feel bad for Walter because throughout the play he has not been good with money from when his son asks for 50 cents and he gives a dollar and then has no money, or by him constantly spending money on alcohol. This also drives a very big wedge between Walter and Beneatha because she was entitled to some of the money that was lost during the business transaction.
Another guilt which he felt about his family was the fact that because of the convenience of plastics and throw away containers, they had no time really spent together as a family. Even the family dinner was forgone in place of fast-food and take-out. This was also disturbing and worrisome to Beavan since it went against everything his grandparents tried to teach him. Beavan grew up not but a 5 minute walk away from his grandparents and spent a great deal of time with them. Both having been born and lived though the Great Depression, they had a “Waste not, want not.” attitude that they tired to instil in Beavan.

For example Abdul’s parents took him out of school in order to replace his father as a garbage sorter when his father became ill with tuberculosis. “You didn’t have a mind for school, anyway, his father recently observed. Abdul wasn't sure he’d had enough schooling to make a judgement either way. In the early years, he'd sat in a classroom where nothing much
My disappointing performance during my sophomore year at BU came at a surprise to my father, who sacrificed in order to provide me with an education few people in my country received. No office space was set aside for me, only a place in factory along with the hundreds of blue-collar laborers who used good, old-fashioned hand great day in and day out. “You will start here and earn your way up,” my father ordered, and left me as i shook hands with many of my new peers. Nobody, besides the manager, was aware that my father owned the company, so I was viewed as just another worker. I worked with mixing and processing chemicals, a repetitive and rote role that was worlds away from the life I grew accustomed to in Boston.
