This help you, lazy?
The $83,804 in average income enjoyed by Asian American married-couple households is 8% higher than that of non-Hispanic white households. Moreover, on average, Asian Americans working full-time earn more than their non-Hispanic white counterparts ($47,189 vs. $46,794).

I'm not interested in your biased opinions. If that's all you have to contribute, there's a cell in my ignore jail waiting for you. Now put up or shut up. So far you've been shown wrong.
It would be nice if you actually read what I posted. I did not say that the average Asian Americans households make less than the average non-Hispanic white households. It would have been stupid of me to make such a statement since its fairly common knowledge that on average the Asian American household has more working adults under one roof than in the non-Hispanic white household.
And I have never said whether Asian Americans earn more or less than their non-Hispanic white households. What I actually said was that when educational levels are the equal between say a white man or an Asian American man, or even when the Asian American's educational level is higher, on average the white man will get paid more for the job.
This is not at all news to me because I also know that white men or women who are good looking earn more than their white counterparts who are not good looking when all other things are equal, or that taller white men earn more than shorter white male counterparts when all other things are equal. In that context, its not surprising that Asian Americans earn less on average than their white counterparts even when they have more education. The two studies down below affirm that scenario as does a big study done by the State of CA in the 1990s re. CA's Asian Americans. Ten is familiar with those studies.
I bet that comes as a big surprise to you, Mr. I-want-no-more- AA-because-its-discriminatory-against-whites Long. Tell me Lazarus, do you think that someone should get paid more simply because of the color of their skin?
"The high academic achievement of Asian Americans is another component of the model minority myth. A number of factors, however, explain this "phenomenon" of Asian American academic achievement. A University of Hawaii sociology professor Herbert Barringer found that native-born Asian Americans make less than native-born whites, and possibly less than foreign-born whites. The Barringer study concluded that "'most Asian Americans are overeducated compared to whites for the income they earn."' Wu argues such a conclusion favors white Americans rather than Asian Americans: "Translated into practical terms, it means that white Americans are paid more than Asian Americans who are equally qualified." The fact that Asian Americans are better educated yet earn less than their white American counterparts undermines the model minority myth. In fact, the studies demonstrate that Asian Americans are forced to overcompensate in their education, because they receive a lower return on their educational investment."

"As Cabezas and Kawaguchi have shown, in order to earn an income comparable to white men, Japanese American men acquired more education and worked longer hours. Males from other APA ethnic groups do not match the income level of their white counterparts when human capital investments are controlled. Korean American men earned only82\% of white men's income, Chinese American men 68\%, and Filipino men 62\%. (p. 149) As is suggested by Chin et al's (1996) quote above, Cabezas and Kawaguchi (1988) is a well known and influential study that serves as a major reference supporting the conventional
