Essay Topic 1

In the opening of THE TESTAMENT, a multi-billionaire carries out a plan to do what he wants with his money rather than what his family wants.

1. Do you think Troy Phelan should have to go through so much trouble just to make sure his will was legally incontestability? Why or why not?

3. Do you think Troy's relatives are wrong for trying to get his money? Why or why not?

Essay Topic 2

1. Why do you think Rachel would make Nate want to be a better man?

2. Do you think it is possible in the real world for someone who has messed up his/her life so badly to meet a person and all of a sudden want to turn his/her's life around? Why or why not?

3. Do you think a person has to have some sort of inner drive in order to change his/her life? What do you think is the inner drive in Nate?

Essay Topic 3
