BGR I think you took it the wrong way. I would consider what Mike said a
compliment. To me it means that they are not wasteful.
Friend of mine who is Korean and lived here for more then 20 years
said the same thing. He said that Asians are very good in saving and
hate to through out their money. He pointed to the fact that a lot of Asian
who came here with nothing and have low paying jobs but own a home
and this is in Silicon Valley.
I got in to Asian frugality discussion with him since I could not understand why
they love to gamble, which is not frugal thing to do. His response was
"You know......"
