Absolute myth:
·
No
Beggars: Homeless people
can be spot on bus stops, who do not look like one, just a little shabby. They
don’t seek money by extending their palms, but do ask, with no plead in their
eye, if anyone have a dollar. Some play music and earn. But, they can easily
afford a junk meal with such cheap rates.

No-family
oriented: Americans are equally
involved within a family, even though parents provide freedom of choice to
their children. You will often find families doing biking, hiking, camping,
barbecuing, boating together.

Americans
are fat: Trust me, I
haven’t found any. They are well maintained and eat organic and raw foods. You
will often find people running at any odd hour of the day, especially men
running without shirt on is very common on roads.

Getting
a job is easy: It is as
hard as scoring 99.9 percentile in CAT with no call on hand.
·
Good
pay: No, local people protest
to increase their basic hourly rate. Moreover, taxes are real bad, way bad,
especially for internationals who do not receive as good tax return as locals
here.
·
Easy
to settle: For an
international, their life revolves around VISA status, docs, EAD, Work permit
etc.
·
Indian
brotherhood: The
brotherhood is only limited if you belong to the same community, else they
would only ogle at each other but not talk.
