Second Generation Immigrants Overtaking U.S Population Success

Children of immigrant parents, especially Asian and Hispanic, are living more comfortable than their parents and many natural born American citizens.


This article relates back to the idea of becoming successful or trying to better the life of your children, which is why immigrants come to America. They see the country as possessing the key values and opportunities needed for them to prosper, which their home country couldn't provide.  They leave whatever they have behind in hopes of starting fresh and making a better living, bringing along family, or sometimes leaving family behind in order to have something started so family can come also. Many immigrants come without any idea of how to make it in the United States, but they’re determined to make a way, not for themselves but mostly for their children.  The children usually are more successful than their parents because they came to American at an age where they could adapt quicker, learning the American way of life easily. These children grow up to own businesses, found companies and make millions. They saw their parents work hard for so little, trying to make life easier for them; this is why many of them choose to chase after a successful life, guaranteeing their own kids wealth.
