Indians are best educated,top earners in US
The 1.5 million Indian Americans in the US continue to top the US Census charts as the best-educated, highest-paid and top-placed community among the 38.1 million foreign-born population in the country.
As per a fresh analysis of data on the foreign-born population from the 2007 American Community Survey, 74 percent of Indian-born US residents had bachelor's degree or higher, which was far more than the figure for people born in any other foreign country.
This was also nearly three times the 27 percent of the foreign-born and about 28 percent of the natives having bachelor's degrees, showed the new analysis that was released by the US Census Bureau of the Commerce Department.
These figures come from the new detailed characteristic profiles on the foreign-born population, or people who were not US citizens at birth, available on the basis of their countries of birth.
"Among the foreign-born, those from India, Australia, South Africa and the Philippines have the highest median household incomes," said the analysis, indicating the top positions Indian enjoy among the US workforce.

well said Laksh65, I am with you.
what reality you are talking about! Its your opinion not reality, and no body asked here about your salary certificate, if you are earning well, keep that to yourself, regarding honesty, people like you should not even mention the "H" of it. YOU ARE FAR AWAY FROM THAT! FROM YOUR ARROGANCE, IT IS QUITE EVIDENT THAT YOU ARE THE MOST IGNORANT AND ARROGANT PERSON! A DECENTLY EDUCATED WILL NEVER TALK ABOUT A COUNTRY OR ITS NATIONAL IN SUCH A WAY!
YOU ARE A BIG ZERO AS A HUMAN BEING! FOREGET ABOUT USD 2K, YOU ARE EVEN WORST THAN A WORTHLESS!!
REMEMBER ONETHING, NOBODY IS VALUED BASED ON HIS BANK BALANCE OR HIS EARNINGS, BUT BY HIS DEED!
YOU ARE FAR AWAY FROM MANNERS, ATTITUDE AND WILL NEVER IMPROVE! SO ARROGANT TALKS LIKE YOURS CANNOT SABOTAGE A COUNTRY OR A NATION! BE IT INDIA OR ANY PART OF THE WORLD! MAY BE YOU GOT YOUR SO CALLED WELL PAID JOB BY NODDING YOUR HEAD OR SAYING SORRY, THAT IS WHY YOU ARE WEIGHING EVERYBODY IN THAT SCALE! IN YOUR OWN WORD REALITY, YOU DONT EVEN WORTH AN OFFICE BOY OR A CLEANER OUT THERE!
Sorry, dumb me...(shaking head mode), Didn't understand a word from your post.
Life is never boring, but some people choose to be bored.... Boredom is a choice. - Wayne W.
jack, the track record of the indians in NZ gives me some level of comfort that yet again they will fail.
plus aust gave the kiwis some confidence in the recent series so hopefully that'll come to fruition :)
You are no value for me to get irritated, because to react in that way I believe I should some kind of relationship with him or her on a personal note! In the world's population, people like you have an impression that I am irritated how does it matters to me, that too I pity your height of ignorance, that you can talk about people whom you dont know and cant even understand a version of your own friend's statement, it will be wrong on my part if I expect to understand me who does not know me at all. So be it Mr. Richierich, does not make any difference to me at all.
Flan..this time the Kiwis are gonna get rocked with Zaheer Khan, Ishant Sharma, Munaf Patel, India never had as good a bowling line up EVER :)
Imagine the bench strength back home to replace them in case of injury:
Irfan Pathan, Rudra Pratap Singh, S Sreesanth and Pankaj Singh.
Man I would be humbled if I were a Kiwi...
[mod note: please show some respect, firstly for the facts and secondly for other nationalities.]
proud to be indian!!!!!!!!
HOOOOOORAAAAAAAAYYYYYYYYY!!!!!!!
i think indians need to focus on their cricket rankings......so often the favourites yet so often the perennial underachievers.
As i check and review my post and your post, you only just irritated in the word "million",and all professional indian i know dont get irritated and did'nt use "!" in a good conversation.

final warning
yeah at mjamille... docjay-- do'nt push yourself too hard.
from a simple news article to a total bashing thread... :/
I know where from you are..and that answers why you are an anti-Indian.This is the second thread am reading this from you. There will be people of all sorts in all countries, generalising 1.5 billion of them, you must be a fool my friend.
Did you sleep with any of the labours?? who work in 40 and 50 degree heat?? they will stink if they are healthy enough to sweat. go get a life, you are such an idiot.
Which is that country you belong to - which has all those perfect and gentle born idiots like you live??
Docjay - you are the biggest D/head i have seen in this site. As I wrote about you before , they were half minded when they went for it,..am damn sure,.
______________________________________________
Listen to Many..Speak to a few.
Err, doc, speaking of crossing the line (hint, hint.) And don't start with the "it's just the truth" defense. It's not edifying, uplifting, insightful, helpful, productive or conducive to good relations.
Mandi
you've over stepped the mark.
Gross Place - Rat Temple
In Deshnoke, India there's a temple dedicated to rats. The people here believe these rats are the reincarnated spirits of storytellers so they take special care of them. Thousands of rats live in the temple where they are fed milk and other tasty treats, which some pilgrims eat afterward because it's considered a blessing to eat food that has been nibbled by the rats. Mmmm... rat saliva.
I am not blind nor have blocked my mind to learn new things from anybody including you! Remember Richierichie in the context you mentioned, may be your friend's version what you were portraying now, if you would have told before, this conversation wouldnt have happened! Now see you proved your friend spoke in an encouraging way about a country he visited whereas your comment was what about millions of people does not know to read and write in India and THIS POST is about US Born Indians achievement! Go back and see your first comment which questions against the main post!!!
May be to counter my reply, you must have gone back to your friend and got the right version now!
Like I mentioned in my above postings, that the world contributes its growth in a mutual way, strengths and areas of improvements are always there and whoever extends his or her hand in any way in any part of the world, it is always appreciable and highly commendable and most important if he is an outsider, even more praiseworthy like your Priest friend did! My point is again do not generalise negatively any thing based on your opinion!
I think it's one of the most difficult to describe India. I've seen many programs on the TV about India, but no-one of them could show the experience of being there, the pleasant and disgusting smells, the endless noise in the main streets of the big cities. If you look for something completely different than the Western world so India is the place. India is a huge country and this is the reason in a period of 3 weeks I saw only small part of this interesting country and the information.
laksh, my priest friend did'nt tell me the literacy in your country just to downgrade indian people, impact he is proud to be serve in india and devoted 2 years of his life in your country just to help in a little way, he observed too many in your country in regards to culture, social life and government, so don't be blind what really the facts to your country.

about Slumdog.. am praying too that it will win an Oscar tonight. Whew!!!
am a fan of the movie- Slumdog.
(sorry for hi-jack.) lol
Yes, I second that victor fully because the attitude in the right way is known only for positivity and brings out the best character of a human being that anybody will look upon and admire, if it is otherwise, is sheer arrogance nothing else but again sometimes unwillingly you have to speak the language that the people understand, most of the time they ask for it, when we dont intend to even utter a word in that direction!!
Jai Hind
SO PINOY,
this is what I was conveying in all my postings that we cannot generalise about anybody anything or any country as a whole in a negative way based on an individual opinion!
I am a strong believer that global connection and growth happens through equal contribution from all the parts of the world. There are strengths and areas of improvement everywhere, but no one has got any right to criticise it in public with reference to any nationality, origin or community as a whole!
If somebody generalises a nationality or a community in a negative way because of a personal incidient or an opinion, he or she will ask for a fitting and attacking reply in their own same language of comment! SO pinoy, I Repeat that either GROW UP OR SHUT UP! PEACE

Great Humanitarian TASK BY INDIANS (BROUGHT UP) IN US

The good Samaritans
When a brother-sister duo took pizza to shelters for the homeless in New York, it was not just food that these second generation Gujarati youngsters got the poor. They got some special moments for those who haven’t had many
Raja Bose
June 20, 10.30 am. The mood at Bread and Life on 75, Lewis Avenue, Brooklyn, is ecstatic. There is music, dance and a sense of gay abandon. A day, inmates of this centre for
the homeless, will probably remember all their lives.
And, bringing a smile on their faces is the brother-sister duo in the US — Obaid Kadwani and Qurrat Ann Kadwani — who spearheaded the ‘Pizza for the Homeless’ project, getting pizzas, along with live music and lots of fun to five shelters for the homeless in NYC, Brooklyn and Bronx.
“We come from a culture of service. We have very lofty role models like Mahatma Gandhi and Mother Teresa. It was logical to combine the arts with community service,” says Obaid, a celebrity among South Asians across America for hosting a national TV show about Bollywood called ‘Namaste America.’ His father migrated to the US 23 years ago.
Obaid, who’s family has roots in Kutch, runs a non-profit multicultural arts company, Eyeblink, that has caused a stir in New York City through this project.
The project has seen 75 large pizzas being donated a day to different NYC shelters, every day for a week. Pizza Hut has joined the grand pizza sponsor for this humanitarian initiative, donating a free full-house pizza for every pizza that Eyeblink has purchased from them. According to statistics, as many as 5,000 slices of pizza have been distributed.
“The over-arching idea is to show that you can have one good thought, regardless of where it originates, and, because humanity is basically good, people will jump onto the bandwagon and that same good thought will become a firestorm of good. Even a dollar does make a difference,” says Qurrat Ann Kadwani, artistic director of the NGO. All projects are approved by her and she makes sure that the projects fit the vision and the mission of the company.
Obaid promises that this would become an annual project and would increase in scope every year. “Our donors have shown us their commitment. The shelters and kitchen have shown us the need. As requested by the shelters, we will be back. However, we need everyone to help,” he says.
Project ‘Pizza for Homeless’ created a pizza party and a special moment for those that don’t have too many special moments. And, it has evoked warm response.
Yemi Oyaname, nutritionist and manager of St. John’s Bread and Life in Brooklyn, said that Eyeblink had done something never done before, “In 27 years of existence, nobody has ever thrown a pizza party for our guests. People were dancing, clapping, and everyone was so excited. Having the live music was just amazing,” says Oyaname.
Reverend Steve Sele of Love Gospel Kitchen in the Bronx echoed her sentiments. “This is so different for us. Eyeblink
and its donors are spreading so much love. We want Eyeblink to come back every year. Just look around at all these happy faces. This means so much to them.”
Swoan Parker, who volunteered to take pictures at Love Gospel Kitchen in Bronx, was seen fighting back tears. A woman had told her that she would skip her meal so that she could take the pizza back to her sick husband who hadn’t eaten all day, even though she herself had not eaten all day either. “Thanks to the plentiful pizza provided by Eyeblink and its donors, the woman was able to eat and take some pizza back for her ailing husband,” says Parker.
”Eyeblink was initially formed as a theatre company and has grown and evolved into an arts organisation. The theatre department has been doing a very innovative, ongoing series called ‘American Colors.’ We also give away at least 200 seats per week to underprivileged people including abused children, battered housewives
Qurrat Ann Kadwani

Only positive attitude towards Life and everything around (education, social welfare, modest life style, focus and vision) bring happiness and prosperity in the nation and world.

good point there..
Actually, being in a forum of different nationality, of different perception and ideas, everyone has a voice or an opinion regarding the related topic.
I do believe that the posting, whatever it may bring to others, poses a sign of improvement and shows positivity. Come on guys, be proud of their achievements. Give them a chance. I also feel lucky, honored and proud, if asian, european or any other expats will do good to other country not only for themselves but for the sake of their country where they came from.
I have this saying from my friend... Grow up or shut up.
Peace!!!
Macliam, I dont understand how you re relating peoples needs with those of salary in figures?
In my neighbourhood, I have seen few westerners including brits buying everyday almost cigrattes and other daily stuff from a small grocery shop next to my villa where even I dont buy any stuff, Does it mean that they are earning less salary or they are not having enough money to drive down to some decent mall like City center to buy!
LuLu Hypermarket is known for indians as a perception, in reality you can find most of the westerners over the weekend shopping there!
It is just a matter of convenience and needs of a personal requirement at that given moment that will vary from individual to individual, family to family and has got no relation to nationality! do not generalise and relate with such a vast topic under discussion!
Oh better richie rich, you shouldnt have disclosed that he was a priest of a church because if he is a priest made such remarks like a layman, then he is insulting this noble profession and it is a disgrace. On the whole you and your friend have insulted your country by talking like this!
I am not irritated because, everybody is entitled to an opinion and I am not answerable to people like you
http://economictimes.indiatimes.com shows the website is already in favor to them nyahaha lols maybe its an indian also who made the survey nyahaah lols
Why then do these highly educated people go on to run small grocery shops?? Surely thats not top end salary is it...
The main lead cast is an British Asian.

With the Indian population at over One Billion people you would expect at least 10% to do well. keep having babies.
Indians are born free....obviously hard working and sincerity pays always.
Sending indian currency to India is supporting India with Foreign exchange (favoring BOP in international trade).
Desis are LOCAL Indians.
Anyways, Indians are getting recognised recently.
Lets keep our fingures crossed for A R RAHAMAN and Slumdog Millionaire at OSCARS tonight at 1PM
May be people like you out of jealousy and incapabilities not able to find a suitable job in competition to the non-us talents there (be it any nationality), are using this term just to satisfy the ego! because you people cannot target anyone other than indians!
That way I can also impromptu create a acronym for your community -- UKBE - UNKNOWN BRITISH EXPATS!!!!
DISCLAIMER - ATTN: ALL FELLOW BRITISH EXPATS (I DONT MEAN TO TAUNT ANY NATIONALITY, IT IS JUST A FITTING REPLYL TO THIS QLER IN RESPONSE TO HIS RACIST COMMENT) IF I ALSOSTART DOING LIKE UKENGQATAR, THEN THERE IS NO DIFFERENCE BETWEEN ME AND HIM)
In our national language Hindi, Des means Country or the home land and so desis means "of the home land"
Life is never boring, but some people choose to be bored.... Boredom is a choice. - Wayne W.
I think that Desi means Indians I guess.. Better let Kasarat confirm that. I think its like the Indian natives..
-----------------
HE WHO DARES WINS
exactlly its a choice of their own i agree.....but when u talking in general abt india ......has india benefited from these people? i dont think the indians working and setteled in us contribute towards indian economy by any means.
Aana free, jaana free,

Cut down on the corruption and break the caste system and India would be good to go.

Richierich, sorry to say if your friend happens to be from your own country, I can very well say inspite of so called knowing reading and writing community from your country, still people dont understand when you people coummunicate! Which is worse tell me? I can show people from this country itself which constitutes different nationality, group or community who dont understand the dialects from your origin when they speak! Most important you speak, read and write English the international language!!!
May be people from India whom your friend might have met, could say the same thing about your friend!
Your remark from your friend is too weird! You cannot generalise the whole country with this statement!
Do not mistake me, when you talk weird things, I need to reply with facts! I never meant to taunt about any nationality be it any!
It's nothing to be proud of.
If all the educated and talented Indians keep leaving to go and work in the US, India will remain lagging behind other Asian nations like China, Malaysia, Singapore, Japan and South Korea.
India needs to work out if it can attract the good people to support the Indian economy, rather than celebrating the fact that the most talented Indians are fleeing the slums of India.
Kasarat the term used in the US for the Desi's that your are refreing to is....
ABCD.. American Born Confused Desis
-----------------
HE WHO DARES WINS
The problem with you is you dont give importance to the people as human beings, in fact I never degraded any profession including yours, it is just I gave a fitting reply in response to your unreasonable arrogance!
By the way do you know the meanting of tradition! It means giving respect to every individual, aspect and nation! Well if you give respect to your tradition, you need not explain me how much currency you make out of your profession! The respect is retained and added more value depending on the person giving its commitment! Such people in reality will never degrade others in any given circumstances!
!
Please Differentiate the percentage and the number?. if you can give me a nice answer. May be i wrong?

Aana free, jaana free,
Pakde gaye tho khana free.
Richierich...above report is saying about percentage not number of people...
74 percent of Indian-born US residents had bachelor's degree or higher, which was far more than the figure for people born in any other foreign country.
The author of this article must be smoking some kind hallucinogen drug.
Why?
By default, one of the many questions that the US census do ask:
What is education level you had achieved? No need to prove it.
Your Celebrating for a few, but your dont realized that your population are in billions. my friend visited india for missionary mission, he said that million of indian dont know how to read and write. think again.

EMN.....Get your facts right before arguing for your own good.And u seem to be contradicting your statements as well.So u now agree that Indians hold high posts with high pay....
Well I wouldn't think all are like that, there are I accept a few of them we called the Confused Desis...lol...but end of the day, they are Indians whether they like it or not, and pls note, we are praising India as a whole which is able to give the world so many Educated Personnel, we aren't talking of any one tom dick or harry! :P
what you need to know is the indians who work in us and hold big positions are ashamed to say they are indians and i dont see any point of prasing them.

The trend is, get the Candian passport and citizenship and then apply for the job in Qatar. That way you will become a top earner. In US you have to pay a lot of taxes.
Life is never boring, but some people choose to be bored.... Boredom is a choice. - Wayne W.
In fact you dont deserve to also! at least indians in US can one day be called as US citizens, but you even after spending your retirement or even lifetime, your passport will not change from Indian to a Qatari. As far as your vote is ooncerned, Indian government is not relying on your voting nor it is dependent on you!
May be you have been caught manytimes here in the supermarket and had free food as a part of your punishment, that is why it is appearing in your message as a slogan aana free......... (or else at the age of five you came in the illegal way to Qatar)In life may be nothing you have done as a legal way!!!
Yikeessss... shytess....somebody was actually talking of Lack or Shortage of Skills in India... that was freaking funny I tell ya...
Wake up people, "everymother bla bla bla" thats too freaking a long name i tell you, we need to first rename you before anything :P
You must be kidding ... at the moment, the most number of jobs are in India... thats a different thing that we believe so much in the Western Education that we go there and educate ourselves and find a living there...not all of them continue to be there... there are people who go there, study and return back to India and do pretty well...and that applies to many other places in the world...
There are people who stay in the country, and who work out of the country... maybe the question shouldn't be asked to you as to why you are here from the age of 5yrs, Your parents need to be asked that question ... girl...Wake UP!
I have just applied for a fake Indian Passport, so that i too can join the top earners..
Well said Laks65!U r just fundu.
And LIB, U wanna be another David Banner huh?
There are about 20,000,000 illigal immigrants and that too from Bangladesh only, are in India. Guess, if the Indian govt expells all of them, we legal Indians may be able to found the jobs within our country.
Well, I am not having any problemm Bangladeshis living in India. I mean, illegal immigrants are there everywhere in all the countries...
Life is never boring, but some people choose to be bored.... Boredom is a choice. - Wayne W.
Education in US is easier than back home...Back home its more memorizing....
We are smart working too...Proud to be an Indian.....I was working for one of the leading Banks(SW section) in US..Guess what right from the top official to the least post there were quiet a lotta Indians and they were paid par with US citizens.Thatz one thing good about US..
EMN, We have many other issues to be settled in India before we go back ..Thatz the reason we end up in the US or any other country.Itz like too many SMEs spoil the project....We never had shortage of skill or knowledge.
...David_Banner is right now?
Life is Beautiful...Indeed!
Could be Shreeya, my point is who is he for that anybody to presume and restrict a figure on his own about a lifestyle of a country, whom he doesnt even know!
What bewilders me is that the audacity of people (irrespective of nationality) they just put brackets about a country, nationals and enter into loose talks!
I dont tolerate talking in such ways about any nationality be it mine or any other in the world.
Thanks and regards,

Indians have a very strong education ethic which literally pays dividends. If only people in west had same idea.
In that case, why the hell are you here in Doha, be it US or anywhere, if you are not in India, that applies to you aswell every_mothers_n!!! You can find the job of your profile even in India, instead of camel, it could be cow!!!! got it! dont talk rubbish!!
the survey only counts the legal indian population in us it will not include the illegal immigrants.
Aana free, jaana free,

People need to start realizing that India is behind noone or second to none!
Everymother...girl, you send your son to the US, you might find him working his azz off in a supermarket till he earns his degree... and this was about being educated and earning good...so check that out ey... you dont find too many indians who are EDUCATED Working in supermarkets do you girl... :P It is about climbing every step and reaching the top rather than getting spoon fed by a rich family and driving a Porsche or a BMW...
Ozgur...well lets just say what shreeya has told you, I would surely stand by it!
Shreeya, well said!
Guess they have to compensate the Indains for giving up their Nationality and Indian passport when they take on the US passport/green card.. lol
Where as lots of other nationalities can keep dual nationalities Indains can't as I know.
Yes Indians are hard working, no doubt about that, even Mr Patel the guy who runs our Corner Shop is very hard working, putting in 14 to 16 hours a day 7 days a week.

Dear Shreeya,
Well said and also Ozgur is weighing everybody in his own scale. that is why his mentality cannot reach beyond US$ 2000 (may be that itself is too much for him) it shows what he is worth!
Ozgur you asked for it!
why they dont make a study on indians in US working as cleaners in super markets.
Aana free, jaana free,

“Among the foreign-born, those from India, Australia, South Africa and the Philippines have the highest median household incomes,” said the analysis, indicating the top positions Indian enjoy among the US workforce.
