Are Asians more bullish about housing in general…

I grew up with Imus and Stern so I’ll blame them for all my non-PC observations.

Walking down my street I rarely see Asians outside. Asked Asian neighbor about kids and parents said its so bad once kids they turn 7 because they have to take them to piano lessons, soccer practice, study lessons, volunteer clinics at homeless and women’s abuse shelters, etc. I think I can hear parents screaming at the kids, probably for missing the C(4) note 13 minutes into the Piano Concerto No.24 in C minor. Another Asian down the block got 23xx/2400 on SAT. And the happy white kids are playing baseball, hockey and basketball in the street. Could be that the white kids are talented creative geniuses with photographic memories and don’t need to study 12 hours a day (in grade school) to be succesful like Jobs and Gates?

Most really smart people I knew in college barely did any home work in high school, let alone grade school. Ask all the rich people you know how much they studied in grade school – high school and you’ll find that they were playing wiffle ball, not reading Encylopedia Brown and Evelyn Wood books (Yeah flu, Wood, not Lin)

Anyway, all that studying/college prepping is way overrated because smarter people (managers) hire those hard working nerds from around the world (read commodity) for technical output while they create oompanies and/or move up corporate ladder making important deals at La Costa.[/quote]

Let’s not get sidetracked into an Asia vs America contest argument.

Asian-American kids who live in this country are a product of America. So they’ll become just as creative as other Americans.

Kids with straight As who go to the best universities will be at a competitive advantage.

Sure, white kids maybe more a part of the “establishment”. But how many more generations will that last if they slack-off when others study? Don’t think that goofing around makes them more creative.

English only used to be enough. But it won’t be in the future.

House prices maybe expensive on the coasts, but if new immigrants can thrive, whites can make it too. Honestly, I don’t have much sympathy for the “white middle class” folks who feel they need to move to the Midwest or Portland to afford a house.

I goofed off too, but I’m a product of a different generation when things were simpler. The world is now much more competitive and global.

It doesn’t matter if Jobs and Gates dropped out of college because only a tiny portion of the population will become executives, CEOs, managers and millionaires.

If you’re going to become an ordinary adult with an ordinary family, and an ordinary job, you’re better off with a PhD than a bachelor degree. Even if a PhD has to work at entry level salary, he’ll be fine and live a comfortable life. A person with only a bachelor will not be fine if the only job he can find is at McDonald’s.

Totally agree with this. Lets look at it another way, if Gates and Jobs are 1 in 100 million, type of people, US have 300M people, so there are 3 of them. Many 1 in 100M will China & India yield when they have a combined of about 3B people?

Yes and no, it depends on the profession. a PhD in animal psychology is probably not going to make that much money while a AA degree as a RN would probably make more.

…. Just trying to say that education is no guarantee of success but it’s great insurance against failure.

Social skills education is also important (etiquette on how to behave in certain situations, how to order food, carry yourself in social gatherings, etc..)

While where at it, let’s talk about HTC too. It started out a scrappy electronics company, and currently holds the #1 spot for Android based smartphone. If you are about to say about how much better iphones are. Save that argument too, because Android OEM’s logged the biggest percentage growth over the past two quarters.
[/quote]

From what I hear Galaxy S will most likely take over the #1 spot for Android device seller pretty soon. Apparently HTC can’t produce their latest devices fast enough because they can’t get enough AMOLED screen, which is mostly produced by Samsung. At least Apple was smart by not using AMOLED when Samsung told them they couldn’t possibly keep up with Apple’s demand and Samsung’s…
