Do you agree with this Harvard educated Chinese guy?

He says there is one exclusive explanation for why there are so many smart Chinese people in Western Countries: They work harder because its part of Chinese culture and they begin their academic training at a younger age because their parents are obsessed with developing their brain for cultural reasons.

When it comes to why so many Jewish people are successful, I believe Deuteronomy suggests that religious training builds your tolerance for pain, humiliation, stress, hard work, conscience, monotony, and delayed gratification which leads to bigger job promotions and more prestigious victories in the job seeking world.

I remember watching a you tube video where a very religious Jewish guy ate an unbelievably hot food without even wincing in pain or showing any reaction to the spices at all.

60 years ago when athletic fitness used to be a criteria for acceptance into Harvard, over 25% of their students were Jewish because vigorous labour at a young age raises your pain tolerance and makes you more successful on endurance tests.

He definitely is on to something. I gave my kids a better life than the one tht I had. I grew up poor and struggled for a long time to get through college and have a good career. They all skipped right over the struggling part and the being poor part.

Sometimes I think that maybe they missed out on something not having to hitchhike in the cold to get to work or having to drop out of college because I did not have the tuition. All that stuff, as bad as it was made me who I am today.

I agree with him, lots of Chinese people are very successful in the west, because they are smart, diligent in their work, and quite persistent.

Cultural influences do play a significant role in shaping academic and professional success, but it's essential to recognize the diversity within cultural groups and avoid oversimplifying complex factors. Both hard work and cultural values can contribute to success, but individuals also possess unique abilities, motivations, and opportunities. While cultural habits and religious beliefs might influence certain traits, success ultimately stems from a combination of personal dedication, opportunities, environment, and sometimes, luck. It's crucial to honor the individual stories within these broader narratives.

Or maybe so many of those kinds of people you mentioned are successful because they control the world.
