I joined this forum just before miat42 quit us here
I'm glad to meet many friends here, including a few in NYC area who happen to know you :-) We still keep in touch with each other in wechat group.
Most of them dived in the stock market and real estate big time in 2008-2009, again in 2020. I believe many of them joined 10-million club already. They are all ordinary W-2 earners here, no mom and dad bank. But they are all prepared and determined.

现在经济状况真的不好说。注意,我这里说的是多数不是少数。
我们通常说的老留是指的九十年代以前,中国改革开放初期出国的人员。这部分人基本都是精英。出国的途径不外乎政府利用世界银行贷款公派,取得美国私人基金组织(比如洛克菲勒基金)或大学奖学金或助学金或利用海外关系取得经济担保而自费留学。
那时出国留学,尤其来美国留学,那可是光宗耀祖的一件事,名利双收。拿到博士学位后一部分去了公司,多数在学术界做了教授研究员。这些职业的薪金收入基本可以查得到。和后来出国的相比,起点低,薪资低,可谓一步赶不上十步撵不上。退休时混个中产,生活无忧,基本没有问题。
真正经济实力雄厚的无不是抓住了投资机遇的那部分老留。这个投资机遇,正像下面糊涂大佬所指,就是2008年金融危机。这是一个千载难逢的机遇。抓住了这个机遇,不管是进了股市还是房市,今天都可以实现三个自由。否则还是早九晚五的上班族,要谈财大气粗,那是美梦。
基本上都在家上班。
师拿个十万的就是很好的工资。所以,老留里大富人是很少的。但不排除有老留的确投资有方,抓住了机遇,说人家这些老留装富,就是瘌蛤蟆欠揍!
2010年后来的,和1990,2000年来的情况很不同。2020年退休的老留,社安金超过每月3000的不多吧?退休时退休账户有10个米的也不多吧?
请注意,不是没有,是不多,也就是没有典型意义。
还是心疼的啊 能看准时机又有胆识和远见的不多。
就是工资收入上面的差别造成的。
投坦的情况没有代表性的。

很多朋友根本从来不碰股票股市,日子照样过得好好的。
都是历史的印记。
位数,这话用在现在也适用,但是思想思维方式还是不一样,资金多的抗风险能力和敢于冒险突破的勇气不一样,还是活在不同的世界里,除非两者都是躺平族。

我们这个好学区,那时1000呎不到的town house 要50多万,2000呎的SFH要60-70万,小黑屋啊,在国内住惯好房子的落差还是有点大,后来看到另一个好学区的崭新的房子,2500呎左右,要60多万,但是离我上班单程要一个多小时,作罢。
Almost every day there is a great story or idea to make big bucks. Too much BS and 50 cents each day now.
