Like I've seen a few Asians talk about how their upbringing is very strict and goal oriented, like it's hammered into them at an early age they need to be successful in life. I'm probably wrong but it's just from my own meager experiences. --- http://i.imgur.com/6VeX04D.jpg https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MryA0iKJoOo <cite>Vyrulisse posted [p:964388901] in Why do Asi...

Almost nobody can afford to actually live in CA so they go their for assignments, then move back to their country. There's also the fact that asian culture , they are just workaholics in general since birth. If you grew up with a united states mentality in mind, you do not want to live like them. I feel like they even make vacations stressful and too busy, and then they look at the pictures afterwards instead of actually enjoying the moment.

Cleo_II 04/18/22 8:48:33 PM #35:	According to my husband (who is Hispanic) he thinks it has to do with how its ingrained in them from a young age to work very hard but not really more than that in terms of ambitions. They have kids really young and have their kids take on jobs to help with bills. My husband was scrubbing toilets at school at 14 in the summer to help support his mom and 4 younger brothers. He ended up being good at IT and is the most successful person in his family. The rest all had kids from 15-16 and had their kids working as teens. Who are now also having kids as teens. The cycle keeps going but its due to living in extreme poverty and religious views against abortion. <cite>Cleo_II posted [p:964390437] in Why do Asi...
