Expats’ children ‘enjoy enhanced career prospects’
By David Sapsted
13 June 2018
The late Dr Ruth Hill Useem, an American sociologist and anthropologist who coined the term ‘third culture kids’ (TCKs) more than a half-century ago, found that children of expatriates were four times more likely to get a university degree compared to others and that 40 per cent of them went on to earn advanced degrees, compared to the average of five per cent.
UAE-based anthropologist Dr Joanna Seraphim added, “They (TCKs) are clearly more open-minded and tolerant because they have seen and experienced things that are different from the people in their own country.
But she found a downside, too, with life as a TCK liable to create a sense of rootlessness and restlessness, where home is “everywhere and nowhere.”

"The revolution did more than legally create the United States; it transformed American society... Far from remaining monarchical, hierarchy-ridden subjects on the margin of civilization, Americans had become, almost overnight, the most liberal, the most democratic, the most commercial minded, and the most modern people in the world." - Gordon S.

In a nation run by swine, all pigs are upward-mobile and the rest of us are fucked until we can put our acts together: not necessarily to win, but mainly to keep from losing completely. HST

When my highly educated Thai girlfriend from a rich family and the top university in Thailand went to America she told me she was surprised that highschool drop outs who make coffee at Starbucks earned twice as much as her professors back home.

When they tell me "ort mean loy" I tell them "tov tver ka, joy knear pro muy" or "go to work and fuck a guy babe". Sometimes I tell them to sext me some pics of them riding big dongs for my personal entertainment and in exchange I take them out to eat at Suki Soup after work.

Trolling hard, pretty much all of his posts are just trying to put other people down or get a reaction.
Silence, exile, and cunning.
Re: Expats’ children ‘enjoy enhanced career prospects’
They're all full of facts.
High school drop out Starbucks coffee sellers where I'm from in America earn more monthly than professors at the top university in Thailand: FACT.
My GF went to the best university in Thailand, came from a very rich family, went to work for a huge international corporation in Bangkok, and earned exactly $700 a month, ie. poverty slum dweller wages. Less than what the average welfare bum gets handed to them for free in America. FACT.
The truth hurts. You can call it trolling instead of trying to concoct an actual response though. I don't expect anything more from you or your ilk.

You know when the values of the enlightenment were widespread and popular in the west it used to be that people would debate and try to prove people they disagree with using facts and figures.
Now they call you a troll and eliminate your speech all together. See a lot of this from Europeans. That's why there's no freedom of speech over there anymore, or any other elementary democratic right like security in the person or the right to bear arms for self-defense.
