Aren't many first-generation immigrants (Koreans etc.) in the US entrepreneurs? They're certainly not middle class, and yet they make in it the business world.

Poor isn’t just a temporary personal financial situation. In this case often the parents continue to sacrifice everything so that their children can have a chance at a better life.

Being the recipient of the sacrifice of two capable people is not a state of poverty.

As a son of Korean entrepreneur immigrants, I can say that many of them work less than minimum wage per hour at their business. These bets can work out but it can also be worse than their employees.
