[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I am an immigrant and I have a dream. My dream is to ascend to the American upper middle to upper class. I was recently watching The Luckiest Girl in the World on Netflix and was intrigued by the machinations of the protagonist as she tries to escape her lower middle class roots. Truly though, how does one do this in real life?

I am not super pretty but I am thin. I am generally smart. I work at a local financial services company and live in Falls Church. I am married to my white American husband but he doesn't really bring much to the table in terms of my social climbing aspirations. He went to one of the local privates and an Ivy but he is a normal low key guy who prefers to go on hikes and play video games, lol. We do OK but not great, 300k
 as of recently.

What can I do to raise my social status?

Be a good and kind person - best long term strategy.

Do good

Use your advantages to help others through volunteer work/ faith community/ putting your skills to work to help others.

Mentor other immigrants

Invest in quality friends who are smart and kind - those friendships last

Have fun along the way [/quote]
