what is your secret?

Are you an immigrant with a story to share?

What is success? This question always stay in my mind.

Normally speaking, for new immigrants, it is to open a small business.

I personally found this a bit sarcastic. But I believe a person has to have money to be successful in this human world.

So, share your stories or read what others wrote.
