Why not go to the USA
Today, disproportionately fewer Russians are thinking about emigrating to the United States than twenty or twenty-five years ago. But do not think that fans of the "American Dream" are very few. More often than not, emigrants to the USA are spoken by just young, socially active and quite self-fulfilling people in Russia. But do they need it?
Svetlana has been living in the United States for several years. Eight years ago, she went to "conquer America." She worked in the representative office of one large Russian company, and simultaneously noticed and analyzed the life of compatriots across the ocean. And for most of them, it is far from rosy.
The most difficult thing is to get a good job abroad. The problem of unemployment is quite acute in the USA. Even Native Americans, with citizenship, with native English, and with an education from an American college, often cannot find a normal job. What to say about our compatriots? Not everyone succeeds in doing business.
- says Svetlana.
An ideal option for arranging in America is if an emigrant arrives at the invitation of a particular company and she takes it to work, simultaneously solving the problems of providing housing. If you go to "independent swimming", then a lot of difficulties will arise.
For example, how to find housing? Rental housing in large American cities, where there is a lot of work, is very expensive. Two thousand dollars a month is still modest. But where to regularly get such money to an emigrant? Yes, and if he has one, not every apartment owner will agree to launch a tenant who is questionable from his point of view.
The cost of living in the USA is also very high. Prices for food, household services, healthcare are not cheap. But the most important thing to learn is that you can go to emigration with young children only if you are a very wealthy person or you are guaranteed to be arranged for a well-paid job.
There are no free kindergartens in the USA. For kindergarten will have to pay a thousand dollars a month. So let’s imagine that an emigrant got a job, receives $ 2,5 a month, and of these, $ 2 should be paid for rental housing, $ 1 for a kindergarten for a child ... What remains? Already a clean minus.
Svetlana says that over the years of her stay in the United States she came to the unequivocal conclusion: those who should be well in Russia should not come here. Such a person will definitely lose in social status, in the level and quality of life.
It’s one thing - a poor emigrant from Africa who escapes from a country plunged by civil war or total poverty. For him, working as a cleaner while living in a tiny little room is a great joy.
The situation is completely different - a Russian citizen who had a pretty good job in his native country, lived in his own apartment, enjoyed all the preferences of Russian life - from monthly leave, compulsory under the Labor Code, to free education for children.

If a person does not smile at luck in his native country, if he cannot find work where his family, childhood friends, where he studied, then abroad, in a world completely new to him, it will be even more difficult,
