Yo how come immigrants are so successful when they come over here?

[Sonic Boom of the South]

Be sensitive and take shyt as an insult to black americans

Go to sleep nikka thought you said you had a job

i been in Afghanistan over 2 years

and decided to take a year off


i consult (IT/Telecomm)on my own accord


i will be up for awhile


we can keep this up if you wish

I don't know where this best of the best shyt comes from but all my immigrant family members and friends came from nothing over seas. They save up a little and slowly bring other family members to this country. People here think they're poor and live in ghettos and are entitled to shyt. They don't know shyt. They're ignorant to the fact that it could be worse.

Another thing like some others have said is unity. Black people don't have that. They don't support each other. If you're black and go to jail other blacks wanna cut you. If you're Dominican and go to jail other Dominicans will hold you down.

Another thing like someone else said, Mexicans come here and be like 34 people in a 2 bedroom apartment. They all work and let that stack. nikkas be too proud to work sometimes.

A better question is how come they don't stay in their own countries and be successful there?

Opportunities are limited there.
Opportunities are limitless in America.

as simple as that. i don't see what people mean when they ask why immigrant can't be more successful in their own country when American has way more opportunities available.

It aint rocket science.

Dominicans and Puerto Ricans living in the United States remain among the groups with the highest levels of poverty in the country, according to numbers released by the Census Bureau.

The data released by the institution showed the level of poverty among Hispanics in general constitutes 11.2 million (23.2 percent.) of a population of about 48.2 million in U.S. territory

Of those Hispanics facing the worst economic status, 26.3 percent are Dominicans and 25.6 percent are Puerto Ricans.

Mexicans and Guatemalans, who both have approximately 25.0 percent, remain on the list in third and fourth place. Cubans had 16.2 percent.

Statistics from the study "Poverty Rates for Selected Detailed Race and Hispanic Groups by State and Place: 2007-2011", confirm that especially in communities originally from the Dominican Republic the level of poverty is lower than for Hispanics in general, African Americans, Asian American, and Hispanic whites.

However, their condition exceedes the situation faced by racial groups like American Indians, Alaska Natives and other Pacific islanders.

During the period from 2007 to 2011 the Dominican population in American territory was estimated at 1,387,724, of which 364.523 lived below poverty levels. Estimates showed that a higher number of Puerto Ricans (4,466,054) at the same time had 1,142,216 people living under the poverty line in the country.

States like Florida, New York, California and Texas where a wide group of Hispanics live nowadays, have high poverty levels ranging from 19.5 to 25.9 percent. Tennessee turned out to be the state that ranked first on the list reporting numbers of poverty among Hispanics of up to a 32.2 percent.

In comparison, the poverty rate reported in the Caribbean country of Dominican Republic by 2011 was of 40.4 percent. Meanwhile, the Commonwealth of Puerto Rico showed an even a higher number of 45.6 percent during the same period of time.

i swear u dude man

Discounting puerto ricans because they're American
Dominicans come here, work, save money, send for other family members
Rinse and repeat
You say they're living in poverty over here, they beg to differ
If there's a blackout here it's national news
Over there it's a daily occurance
Literally everyday, a black out that lasts for hours
They eat mud cookies in dr
Where u think all those 2014 broncos super bowl champion shirts went to

Ain't no such thing. Ain't never met no Nigerian with them certs

[patscorpio]

My parents came over from the islands and worked hard to get to where they are in life, and they expected no less from me and my sisters, no if ands or but about it. Education was priority number 1 in my parents household, at the time I hated how strict they were when it came to school and fun, but I am grateful as hell now that I stuck to the script. I see a lot of where my old friends ended up in life now

cannot cosign this enough my breh..me and my siblings went through the same thing coming up...nigerian parents didn't play when it came to education...a lot of harsh realities for a majority of my friends now that didn't have that type of upbringing
