Honestly, I can’t understand my Chinese colleagues that want to stay in the US and make their career here. I think in raw currency values they come out ahead, but everything I can find indicates that unless they create a multi-billion dollar Silicon Valley startup, they would likely be better off in China. And this is in a pure field, where highly-valued startups is unlikely.

“Own” “Home” lol

Yeah but is it really an advantage if the home you own is in China? Don’t get me wrong, I’m not a fan of the states. But China’s still an absolute armpit of a country.
