Great to hear immigrants that actually appreciate the opportunities the U.S. has to offer legal immigrants.
@Fixer Probblems that's rich
@Fixer Probblems Latin America and superpower is an oxymoron, hell, latin america and stability is an oxymoron
I'm sitting in a classroom looking at American-born students. Some of them will use this country to its fullest potential and others will continue making excuses for themselves not just expecting the dream to be given to them but demand that it comes to them at the labor or others who grind each day. One day they will post on social media or protest in the street how destitute they are and the politician will be there to scoop them up promising the dream, keep them socially and emotionally stagnant, and never giving them anything but platitudes and empty phrases.
Damn... well said.
I used to be the "America Sucks Man!" student and constantly whined about how horrible America was and how I wish I lived in another developed nation. Over time, I've come appreciate America despite its flaws. My mom escaped communist China while my father's family came to America as plantation workers, and I appreciate the freedom I have living here.

Agreed, however we have many flaws that must be fixed, nevertheless, we have an amazing country.
So many opportunities can be made here and often easier than anywhere else.
@@markusringgaardlorensen2015 This video is about immigrant success, go to any european country and talk to the immigrants instead of citing a an absolutely flawed article. Immigrants in scandinavia and in other parts of europe lead absolutely miserable lives, they're constantly discriminated, they forced themselves to have low standards, no ambition. I have seen talented immigrants getting ignored and instead doing dead end low paying jobs and ended up wasting their lives and regretted moving to europe. America, even with all her faults is still a way better path to prosperity than anywhere in europe, second only to canada
@@ornim1 Thats right my dad works in germany as a employer in a fabric and get 1100$ but 40% is tax after they take 230$ for rent and some 100$ for maintance ot machines that company owns and he has only 500$ or less left everymonth you cant save and you can only live basic or low and you cant make any dream that you like happen here in EU. Germans here get paid more than immigrants and for 3rd world countrys may seem like a paradise but for someone who has big dreams isnt worth the time.
@@GRecordss honestly, my biggest regret is taking the dev job in Spain after completing my Master's in Sweden, I'm genuinely contemplating going back to my home country. The money I get from my dev job is negligible at best compared to what I used to get paid back home
@@ornim1 i think that in some way it may vary in your goal i mean if you want a high paying dev job you shourly need to go to a place that pays good but not just that even the tax rate because you may make less thet you really get as germany for example.
@@GRecordss indeed, if someone is ambitious and wants to move they should either go for North America or Australia, europe is just a fad that thinks too highly of itself and pander platitudes and cliches about it's alleged greatness
I live in the west. In Utah and Idaho they celebrate something called “pioneer day”. It’s to give thanks and never forget the pioneers that settled those areas and mostly the ancestors of those who made those states flourish. I never met someone who didn’t have a pioneer ancestor. I am Peruvian, so I know I didn’t. But I realized I am MY families Pioneer in this country. My wives great great great grandfather came to america from Whales and was one of the participants of the Oklahoma land rush and subsequently the gold rush. They were very poor and slowly endured. I think of myself as my families Pioneer because I don’t have family here, except my wife, and I have slowly build a life for myself with hard work and perseverance. In contrast to my birth land, which I do miss, this is my HOMEland. I gained my citizenship, graduated from a top university with honors And I currently hope to gain admission to medical school and continue my American dream. The land of opportunity. Don’t give up. It’s hard, but worth it. You can do it. We can all do it here. May god bless America.
Advice of the Day: America 🇺🇸 is the Greatest country to be. We may have some problems such as trying to deal with Crime and other crises that face us but still many people like coming here to experience the American 🇺🇸 Dream, it’s just like how some people like to flock to Florida.
America has flaws, and many of them--but they are bearable compared to the level of freedom and respect that many Americans show to each other. Many Americans greet almost everyone, they ask you how you feel and how you are doing, they understand it's okay to get help, and most of all, they live by "mind your own business."
When the colonists left Europe to come to America, they were leaving behind a caste system that limited a person's progress, their ability to rise up the social ladder, simply because of the accident of their birth. In many European countries, all land was ultimately owned by the king, who gave barons land in return for military service. The barons allowed serf and peasants to farm their land, but never own it. The peasant class, the agrarian class (serfs), the merchant class, the priestly class, the Aristocracy and the Royalty were fixed by the one's birth. (well...not really the priests) Laws were enacted to make it extremely difficult and rare for anyone to move upward out of their social class into another class. Marrying outside of your class was a definite no-no!
If you weren't born into the Aristocracy, or the Nobility, or whatever, you would never be able to move up.
America was different. "Come to America and pursue your dream." In America, people weren't limited by the circumstances of their birth. In America, people could move up the social ladder by sweat and hard work. In America, people enjoyed the fruit of their labor. In America, people weren't taxed to death in order to keep them poor.
In America, ANYONE could become President. There were no classes, there was no Nobility or Aristocracy. Everyone was equal, and could pursue their version of the American Dream as they saw fit. Want to own your own home? You can do it through hard work. Want to go to college and get educated? You can do it through hard work. Want to own your own company or business or farm. You can!
What is the American Dream? In America, there are no limits placed on you other than those you place on yourself. If you are a go getter, you can go get it! If your a hard worker, you can earn it! If you have a dream, you can make it come true. This is the true American Dream. People have the freedom to be successful. however they define "success", through their own efforts.
If you're a slacker, you have no one to blame but yourself.
Here is the motto of the American Dream: "I came from nothing, and worked my way up. Look at me now!"
12 YEAR OLD ME THINKING HE COULD MAKE IT TO THE AMERICAN DREAM BY JUST BEING A RUclipsR XD
Trueee
Bruh
I really want to move to USA becuase i will be a real estate investor i am planing to move to germany its a great country but for immigrants almost everything is limited because you dont know the language and you cant get paid as the germans even if you knew it.Also the taxes are much higher in compare to US always there are some pros and cons but for my dream as iam 18 i think that US would be better to make it happen.🙂
GRecords come on down! Go to the immigration website and apply and hound the US embassy. Tell them your skills, show them as much paperwork as you can proving it! As an american, I’d love to see more immigrants come here! My parents did it from East Germany at the height of the Cold War!
@Beauty B who is WE ???
Go to America. I live in Germany, and my mother is a doctor. Even she always tells me that she’s working for the government for 9 of 12 Months in the year. The taxes for the middle-class are unbearable.
Your interview sounds real, you elaborate greatly, but if you’ll need to know, trying to put another human being down in so many ways don’t work, we as FBA’S has built up this country for all, but we never get appreciation we feel used. Okay you got professors on television telling the people how brilliant we are an telling our history. But God don’t appreciate the person that don’t appreciate the ones who worked so hard and through civilization made it possible for you to be in front of that camera. FBA’S we did it. Our ancestors or once upon a time through suffrage made this place a civilized place, later on others help out with easy tasks and some tasks not so easy, but they got paid for their work we didn’t, so people so eager to get in front of the camera and sound so fake, I know I said you sounded great, because you put the ups and downs in your destiny for focusing on what you started.
I suggest having passion and motivation, if you do, you will 100% become extremely rich.
One day i will be in america,the disney land of the world.Waiting for that day!
Nothing from like an African perspective. Very myopic-honed in on a certain section of the American Westernized Race Hierarchy…the center.
FAITH IN GOD ALMIGHTY, HARD WORK, AND SELF DISCIPLINE WELCOMES PROSPERITY AND SUCCESS.
Powerful. God bless your road.
If you have the passion and motivation, you will 100% become rich in America.
If you cant make it here, it is more difficult to make it anywhere.
America is really hard. People think they can get a good job and that it's easy. It's not. I work with lots of immigrants who don't speak english. 12 hours on your feet, 36 hours a week, very few are willing to do it. A medical bill can be 40,000 to a million dollars. Few immigrants are willing to work hard in one job to get insurance.
America isn’t hard, america is great and chances are if you were born and raised here you’ll never understand how good you have it.
LOL it is soooo easy to make a ton of money here, you just don't know how to go about it. All you need to do in America is: Learn a profitable skill (IT, HVAC, Carpentry, etc), get a job using that skill, save a little bit of money, perfect that skill, then start a business with that skill. That's all you need. You don't even need a bachelors degree for IT, etc.., all I did was go to a community college for information network technology, went from making $9.00 before college to $160,000 after college (two years). It's all about how motivated you are, for instance, I did hundreds of interviews before I landed my first job in networking, I had to relocate but it was well worth it. So you guys have to think like that, never give up, keep improving after every failure, keep shooting for the stars and I guarantee that you will become successful. Also, what the fuck are you talking about the medical bills lol that's no where near true.
you are saying because you were born and Raised in The US.
You are privileged.
You will not understand how lucky you are..Be thankful
I also want to move to US from Canada,What you folks say about it.I came from India 6 years ago.

>700,000,000,000$/a for the military complex but no money for good schools for every child, a functioning health care system, high speed railway system, high speed internet, reliable power grid, and not even enough food for all.
Bridges, roads, railways, water pipes, locks, harbors, dams, canals etc etc all crumbling and rotting. Life expectancy lower than in Cuba and falling. Truly a great country who cares for it citizens!
Yup
we are way too overpopulated and it's a crime to give away our country to so many millions of foreign people all just coming here to take advantage. THIS COUNTRY IS FOR AMERICANS AND OUR CHILDREN. we need to slam those doors shut IMMEDIATELY, should have done it 100 years ago. OUR EXTREME IMMIGRATION IS INSANE.
Most places it is worse
@@jasonmiller3011 If it's enough for you to be better than, say, Chile, for example, then that's right. But the U.S. falls far short of many developed countries. In fact, the standard of living of an average GDR citizen (that was the communist part of Germany) was higher than that of an average US citizen today. It was not always so. One should ask when and how this happened.
@@Medley3000 US has a vary large population than any other developed country on this planet . USA has a very big land to protect. Countries like Norway would always have better standard of living cuz they have like 10 people living there . Not possible to keep and afloat the western culture without spending money on military to protect other western and developed Asian countries . Allies are strength of USA . Otherwise Russia or China would invade the whole world and increase corruption in those regions which will ultimately decrease the standard of living there like they did in their whole country. Keeping western culture afloat is necessary cuz this culture created so much money for normal people in western countries .And don't even try to say Russia and China have higher living standard than USA . Its
never gonna happen. Not in a million years . Why I know this . Immigrated from India in 2000s to USA . Created a 3 million dollar networth .
What about a person born in America?
They dream too.
It would be nice to franchise the American dream globally so no one has to travel. Considering money can buy anything including people, would be nice to work into other countries'tax or incentive systems.
wooow amazing talent
if do you like this video, let's go to share this video for all in the world
God bless you all
Its ok Yerry Dompas
Trust me its just ok
So calm down , relax just get back to work
Laughing in Canadian
Yeah, Canadian businesses come over here, too much regulation over there, super high taxes, less jobs, etc..., in America, it's easy to get a job, less regulation so it's much easier to start a business, the investors here actually care and willing to help people out. Canada is going way too far left, they are getting rid of freedom of speech over there. You guys think you have freedom of speech but you truly don't.
Also, don't fall into the trap that Canadians are nice (they might be when talking to you but behind your back....), I have multiple Canadian friends, and they all say the same. Also if you play online video games, you'll notice that Canadian's are some of the most racist people.
I am a LEGAL IMMIGRANT and now I am a millionaire! That’s the American Dream that I far expected. I only wanted a simple life of peace and prosperity. God Yahweh Jehovah ElShaddai Allah Bathala gave the American Dream to me in reality more than what I deserve! Thank you God the Father Almighty Yahweh El Shaddai Allah Bathala!
Yessir 🇺🇸 where you from brother
How did you do it?
Oh dude I'm so happy for you😊 i hope in the future i became a billionaire in america too like you fr❤
Pour moi je reve ameriqu1in cest ma prof danglais
It's a dream that you immigrants think you're going to tame here but it's harder than you think hard to even stay alive from year to year
Honestly it's not that hard if you know what to do....a lot of people here just don't have the hunger or motivation to become successful and blame others for their failures. However, if you have the hunger, if you have the motivation and passion, no matter what, you will become successful.
it's definitely easier than staying alive In the US if you compare with a third world country
@@socomxxexactly, it’s true wherever you are really
PLUH!!🗣
The opportunity for what? To get shot?!

People are very misinformed about making money in the US. 70% of the country is living paycheck to paycheck. Americans only know how to work, not live. You see, well I've been very concerned about starving, so I work more than 40 hours a week because rent now exceeds 70% of my income. If an American wants to immigrant out of the country, then they have to pay taxes on their international income. It's more or less slavery. They're ain't no dream to be haved, unless people live off the grid. You got people making 25k a year living in a shoe box apartment & claiming to be greatful... Migrants treat this country as some Godsend when in reality all of the hard-working American's are paying taxes, so that they can come over here & inflate the economy for the rich lobbyist
It's not a right. It's just our government caters more to migrants because we're stupid enough to continue paying for it~
You are totally incorrect, there are more middle and upper class in Americans, you don't have enough life experience yet. You don't work hard or have the motivation or passion to move up. If you are making less then $50,000 in you're 30s, you are doing something wrong and you need to do research and be motivated. Tired of people complaining when they haven't even tried. I will debate you if you have the balls.
You can only laugh about it today, it's all pure nonsense
