It's just different cultures. Many people have been judging immigrants with American standards, and putting down younger people who drive nice cars. This was actually confusing for me when I first surfed forums.

where else do you expect the money to go? charity?

I went to UCI and there were a ton of dumb kids w/ cars much nicer than mine (I didn't even drive for a year).

That said, when I was first going to school I thought it was weird people working through college... I assumed everybody's parents paid for their children's education.

UCI is over 75% Asian and bunch of them are rich as hell, I know a girl there and I have seen how much those young kids can spend.

These kind of the scene is only seen in Cali man, I went to LSU and every Asian I know there (mostly Vietnamese) are hard working kid and study their asses off. I get mad when I read news like these because a lotta people just thinks Asian = Rick punks.

Personally I tell others that I am Taiwanese and NOT Chinese but I know there will be people who won't understand this and will think I am being weird. I will just leave it there, people who know why will know what I am talking about.

Well said man, I can totally relate what you are saying. When I moved to States back in 98, my family purchased a little motel and the next 9.5 years was like in hell. I had to help there and had to deal with some of the most disgusting things while cleaning/fixing these rooms. I had to keep people out b/c of prostitution. I had to work on Friday and Saturday night from 9-3 in the morning cleaning out rooms for more customers. I had to be careful not to get stuck by used drug needles underneath the bed, underneath the chair cushions or tucked underneath the sheets. I once cleaned one TINY little room with 14-15 used condoms spread throughout the rooms!!! Me and my dad had to deal with so many room problems and we had to learn from every single cases since we knew nothing of those to begin with. We made good money alright, people were like oh you'll are rich as hell. Yeah but we worked for it!!!

Now I am a dentist and I promised myself that I will demand respect from others and not just taking crap from others. Fuck that puck ass Asian kid.

Honestly, we could use some more people in this
country like some of the Asian guys/ gals in this thread. If you want to
hate on a culture there are other places to look.

Haha, 98% of Taiwan is Han Chinese, unless you were ancestors of aboriginals which accounts for the other 2%.

A lot of people dont realise that there is a big division between the rich and poor in China and HK.

Property prices have jumped massively over there, many factories have opened; combine that with low income tax rates and the result is a great deal of people have quick access money they never had.

This has widened the gap even further.

You got to HK and you will see more Benz's, BMWs and Audis than jap cars (exc taxis!)...

What? So here in the US, when we die, where do we send our money? I really thought I was going to leave it to my children. Thanks for straightening me out on that one.

I swear the racial profiling in this thread absolutely amaze me.
