Rich Immigrant Poor Citizen: Immigrants Teach Their
Children What Citizens Don’t
I am a firm believer that immigrants have made the United
States a stronger country, and that we have done so
through the values and discipline instilled in us by
our parents and our various cultural standards.
It is for this reason that I tell the stories
of the children of immigrants who have studied at
America’s most prestigious universities, and learnt to lead
a very successful life.
The percentage of immigrant children attending Ivy League
universities is much higher than the percentage of
children whose parents were born in the United States.
When these children graduate, they often go on to careers
that are rewarding to them not only financially but in
other, more personal ways.
Understanding what motivates these young men and women,
what sets them apart from others whose achievements
are not as great, can be of great benefit to everyone who
reads about them, as well as to Americans as a whole.
This book is a must read for the parents who want their
children to succeed and for the youngsters who have a
desire to be extremely successful in life. There is so
much to be learnt from the cultural background of each
other.
