Absolutely Doc.... been here 10 years. 4 LaBrea Area, 3 Sherman Oaks, 3 North Valley (kids need bigger house) I am solidly middle class and immigrant and I welcome the ethnic mixing. If not anything it has taken the range and quality of cuisines available up a notch. I wouldn't move...

You sure you were addressing me or the OP? I would love to continue trading as it adds nicely to my lifestyle. Trading outright futures/equities is too much work for me. I would like to thank all of those traders here who pointed me towards spreads. The best advice I was given was to find...

If everyone had to pony up only 10 bucks a month to be here, a lot of noise would get removed. Unfortunately some great traders would also take offense and leave. sigh....

interesting observation for a guy named after a dead slice of fish :D :D :D :D

You do know that 65% of IBM revenues came from outside USA? http://www-03.ibm.com/press/us/en/pressrelease/23930.wss

If we read closely, He and wife are british citizens. For all we know he may be third generation.... so you can forget the saving/cheap gene then.

I agree completely. I had posted this a few days ago in the immigrants thread http://www.elitetrader.com/vb/showthread.php?s=&postid=2331641#post2331641 How is it that an average engineer can get here in USA on any piece of paper but the best doctors of western europe need to come to...

Funny you mention that. I know more than a few OC born "caucasian" well educated guys who moved across the world to New Zealand. This started a few years ago. They said they weren't happy with the quality of life and direction for their kids. At first I was shocked as i was waiting in line...

Please dont tar everyone with the same brush. I used an H1B and went to grad school in a top ten ranked Univ in USA. I have never felt used or underpaid. H1B has many layers to it. Also regarding your off shoring comment: Lets not forget that in a global economy you have to let the third...

Having worked in healthcare for a bit, I have come to the conclusion that AMA is a glorified guild/union making sure the supply of doctors is always less than demand. I guess in one way thats good as they did a better job than engineering societies in keeping the salaries of their members high.

Ah come on ! I was an H1B once and I stand by my statement. Barely one in five can compete on skills alone. And to those who hate my cheap laborer self... I was always paid more than my local compatriots and I received my H1B after paying dues for years in Grad School. It did help that I...

Somehow I think "I am outta here with vested options" CEO doesn't care about that.

I have to say.... Of all the H1Bs I have met.... I could barely count one in five who seemed competitive on skills alone.

Thats too deep. Your sentence construction had a delicious irony thats all.... What I am saying is: In the history of USA all immigrants have been viewed with paranoia by the newly made locals regardless of how they came. Back to the regular programming.

Now Now...... No reason to get worked up. Isn't that what Native Indians would say about you people? :D :D :D The irony ...
