Indians and Asians have networks rivaling anything that the ivys had.
I bellieve that earlly independence and responsibility grounds people in ways that provides creativity and flexibility. That is what propels them I to success. And the doctors and business owners and lawyers and oncology specialists and politicians and cpas and international marketing companies owners and successful restaurateurs and regional construction companies owners and
sucessful inventors that I know among many others all do very well financially and in social stature.
I agree with the independence bit, as far as adulting goes. I don’t see how helping your child, if he is doing what he is supposed to be doing, works against that. In my view, it builds up intergenerational wealth. One of the reasons why Asians have surpassed everybody is because they concern themselves with ensuring the best to their children so the parents can eventually be taken care of.
I think the idea of cutting your children off, the very second they turn 18 and expect them to shoulder $200,000 loans works against their ability to succeed, even if they do become successful they might have become more successful if they weren’t having to handle that completely themselves. Whites are losing ground, when compared to Asians or East Indians, who don’t view the idea that they should cut off their children the moment they turn 18.
