Ethnic Chatter

 I was looking at data that the Census folks had....from 2013....and there's this statistic that I thought was interesting.

Roughly 28-percent of (average) Americans have some kind of Bachelor's degree.  

However, if you said Korean-American ethnic heritage....it's 53-percent.

If you were talking about Japanese-American, it's 46-percent.

If you were talking about Indian-American, it's 70-percent.

In that same time period, if you were talking about take-home pay....the average American took home around $56,200 a year.

But if you were talking about Taiwanese-Americans?  It's $82,500 a year.

Chinese-Americans?   $69,500.  

Begs the question....is there more effort put out by certain cultures?
