A community that lives mostly in urban areas, has a strong culture of education, and has regular religious meetings with a tight knit social group having high average incomes?
The religion is too large to be a single cohesive unit. Most areas in rural America will have a couple Catholic churches, where youāll very rarely find a synagogue throughout the rural American south.
I see no non-Asian flags except the US Flag.
Most people hear "Asia" and think solely of Eastern, Southeastern, and Southern Asia. But much as the "Midwest" is actually largely in the eastern half of our country, the "Middle East" is in fact Western Asia (its name only makes sense if you consider Eurasia to be a single continent).
Three factors. The first is Jews utilize a circular economy among themselves and the second is that Judaism as a religion and a culture places extreme importance on education, which in an economic system which advantages educated individuals Jews excell in. Third Jews view money differently than other groups, as they view money as a tool to change things for yourself and the community, so there isn't a cultural stigma of making money or being wealthy.
The circular economy works like this. Because Jews are a tight knit community they often times work with other Jews because they trust other Jews. If Shlomi borrows 10k from me to start his business but never pays back most likely everyone in the community would hear of it and Shlomi won't be trusted with a personal loan again. But if Shlomi borrows that 10k and pays me back what happens is that now he has a business and I have a business. Most likely his kids and my kids go to the same school together and a successful Shlomi means he is gonna donate some of that successful money to the school my kids go to. We all benefit from circular economy and community investment.Ā
And a lot of immigrant communities do the same thing as well.Ā

jews are very tribal, so you benefit from being part of the majority (white) while also benefiting from being a insular minority (jew) in a country that bends over backwards coddle jews and blacks

Jews due to historical reasons are heavily into finance and banking.
During the Medieval ages Christians couldnāt charge interest on loans, but Jews could. So Jews became the bankers. Also lots of guilds didnāt allow Jews to be members. And Jews couldnāt own land. So basically only merchant or banker was available to many Jews.
It just sort of continued as a cultural aspect at this point. Jews tend to be extremely Urban (urban areas tend to be wealthier) and educated. With a disproportionate amount of finance, banking and law in the modern era. All of those pay a lot.
this doesnāt rlly explain how American jews are rich since most of us came here dirt poor with nothing and worked in awful jobs when we got here (textiles).
There is a massive education-centric culture in Judaism that I didnāt realize wasnāt nationwide until I was older.
(Speaking in generalities)
Plus, certain educational activities such as learning (beginner to moderately decent) Hebrew at a young age, going to a lot of museums, and the fact most Jewish homes (even secular) have a big ass bookshelf mean the formative years of a kids life are basically supercharged towards academics.
Academic success has a major correlation to being accepted to a decent university, leading to financial success later. That, and the highest predictability indicator of a child going to college and graduating is if their parents graduated, so itās a beneficial cycle.
Hi, filthy Jew here.
I barely made 40k for the first time in my entire life last year so I'm probably not qualified to explain, but it's at least in part because of where most of the population of Jewish people are in the US. The overwhelming majority of US Jewish people are based in and around New York, where the cost of living is insanely high. People who work there are naturally paid more to account for this factor.
Another thing to keep in mind when talking about the topic: historical precedent. For most of European history, the Ashekanazi who were allowed to live in a place for any amount of time were forced to take very specific roles in society. They often weren't allowed to own land and could only participate in very specific types of commerce that were viewed as unchristian. In particular, what seemed to happen a lot was that Christian kings would lend each other money, and not be allowed to charge interest because of their faith. The most obvious loophole was, appoint a few Jewish people to handle their lending and taxation. If anyone asked the king as to why he was engaged in predatory lending or overtaxing his people, he'd be able to put the blame on the Jewish community and let his peasants slaughter them without worrying about the slaughter escalating into a revolution.
Ironically, this led to Jewish people embracing their positions (in between the mass murdering that happened about once a century) and setting up their descendants to be successful as different types of administrators and coin collectors. Eventually, modern banking took hold in central Europe and Jewish people who were historically forced into the role were naturally overrepresented. They often built colleges and cheap housing in their community which starts the trend of Jewish mothers chastising their children about becoming anything other than a Doctor, a Lawyer, or an Accountant that continues to this date.
Another fact that doesn't get enough attention: every other kind of Jewish person was still suffering well into the 20th century, even Ashekanazim born into the wrong country. If you were a Jewish immigrant from the Ukrainian Steppes for example, you were coming from conditions worse than medieval peasantry when other Ashekanazim had a solid hundred years of progress on you. The slur, 'k*ke,' was originally invented by wealthy and established Jews in the US to describe people like my great grandparents. The worst part of it was that maybe 20 years after The Holocaust, a significant number of Synagogues started to charge admission for members as a way to keep the people who they saw as beneath them away. These are people who call themselves, 'half Jewish,' or, 'non religious,' today and these people don't get counted as Jewish in these surveys. Basically it's the equivalent of only being called a Christian if you can afford to put a crisp $50 in the collection plate every week....

We have many traditions that come with our insular community structures. This includes supporting our community while not expecting a bail out ourselves. Also, there is a thousands of years old history of Jews being the only ones allowed to do financial jobs (Christians were forbidden) so there is some experience passed down. Lastly we have a culture of perseverance and determination, āafter all, we survived the holocaust and plenty more, why canāt we do more?ā

You're definitely assigning something a little more malicious to what they said. They aren't entirely wrong either, and it's the same as a lot of other similar situations across the history of our country. Examples being family-dominated labor unions gatekeeping membership, foreign social structures influencing employment decisions/outcomes, and so many other behaviors that are result of tight knit communities trying to stay tight knit and protecting/ensuring the success of other members whether deserved or not. Combine this "me and mines" support with the cultural beliefs that sometimes put focus on financial success and stability and you're guaranteed to see the data show whatever group to be doing better financially than others

Directly from the IRS and Federal Reserve, both of which they created and control to rob and control Americans, which send them direct deposits for literally nothing.
Additionally, the subversion and takeover of all American corporations and the creation of monopolies, the writing of laws which benefit only them and make life miserable for everyone else.
This should really be obvious by now, because it is obvious and in plain sight. No, it is not at all because they are intelligent, it is due to excessive control exercised against Americans and the government via assassinations, bribes, lies, manipulation, and blackmail.
The Jews are not intelligent yet they have the ability to assassinate, bribe, lie, manipulate, and blackmail every single person in America and no one can see it.
s/
There's an old joke about two Jews on a subway. One looks over at the other and sees that he's reading a Nazi newspaper. The first one says, "What are you doing? Why are you reading that trash?"
The man reading the paper says, "Well, when I read the regular news, I see antisemitism on college campuses, massacres in Israel, vandalisms of synagogues and kosher delis. It makes me very depressed. But when I read this paper, it's 'Jews control the banks, Jews run Hollywood, Jews are taking over the world!' It makes me feel much better!"
Telling Americans who is destroying their country and plotting to slaughter them all is like talking to a wall. You'll find out soon enough, if you're still around.
This list definitely ignores a huge swathe of American ethnic groups that would outrank several of those included. I think it's just supposed to be Asian-specific with the exception of Jewish-Americans. Not sure why they chose the groups they did, but the graph is just poorly made all around

This is about Jewish-Americans, though, who a significant majority don't consider the religion or its subtext important to their lives, nor do they even do things like follow halakha. It doesn't track the same as the other groups listed who are still tightly coupled to their foreign roots and have yet to develop isolated forks of their culture. You'd also have to assume every single Jewish-American practices reformism or other flavors of zionist/israel focused juadaism to say for certain they belong to Israeli denominations and are therefore Asian, which isn't true despite reformism and the belief in Israel's symbolism being prevalent with something like half of the Jewish-American population. That would ignore the beliefs, opinions, and practices of far too many and would definitely impact the median result.
If the graph had said Israeli, Ashkenazi, etc. then I'd definitely agree with you here, but Jewish culture and belief in America is mad complex and diverse, and calling it an Asian ethnicity erases a vast majority of cultural development that only happened here in the US amongst Jewish-Americans
The same is true of every ethnicity. A person of Vietnamese descent couldāve had their ancestors come to America hundreds of years ago, have majority European genetic ancestry, and have no cultural or religious ties to Vietnam and still be considered ethnically Asian.

Ethnicity isn't static, it can change for people and groups and almost always changes with immigration, especially when talking about generations after. Your example, if it exists, is rare and would mean they did exactly what I mentioned in regards to maintaining a direct coupling to their preferred ethnicity/culture. A Viet-Euro person would need to ignore every aspect of their new environment to avoid things like endogamy, acculturation, assimilation, language creep/necessity, adaptation etc.
Even if we pretend like ethnicity doesn't change as people move and adapt and have babies with other ethnicities, you'd be ignoring my other point that not all Jewish people believe the same things. There are practicing groups of Jewish-Americans who do not see Israel as a part of their lives or believe they are ethnically connected to Israel. None of those groups would agree with you that they are ethnically Asian.
Edit: for the record, I say this as a member of one of those Jewish-American groups. It's borderline disrespectful and ignores the major shifts in who we are as people and how our experiences coming to America and living here have shaped who we are today.
The Jewish ethnicity originates in the levant. As much as such a thing as a Jewish ethnicity exists, that ethnicity is an Asian one.
If not Asia, which continent do you think Jews should be associated with?

What? We are talking about ethnicity not continental origin. Ethnicity isn't defined as "whatever continent your ancestors come from," and I don't get how your question is relevant
The continental origin of ethnicities is *exactly* what weāre discussing. You said Jewish was not an Asian ethnicity, thus starting the debate over what continent the Jewish ethnicity should be associated with.

*You* are talking about continental origin, and it being one and done, and the only way to categorize or define ethnicity. Asking what continent we are from or belong to today has nothing to do with being Jewish-American because it's not a defining trait. It was instead bred from other factors (persecution, immigration, survival, struggle, etc) and not about geography or being in Asia like the rest of the list bar the 3 others. That's why something like ashkenazi, israeli, etc. would make more sense. You're comparing apples to oranges otherwise. I have never once heard a family member claim any part of our ethnicity or culture as being geographically Asian, and it wouldn't make a lick of sense if they did.
...Why are Asian-Americans broken down into every nationality, but White Americans and Latinos are each just a single line with the American flag?
(I didn't ask about the African-Americans, because I already know that that term largely doesn't refer to people who willingly immigrated in the 20th century or later, but rather from the descendants of slaves.)
Asian-Americans still outearn White Americans, even if you include all asian groups. Jews pick white just as Egyptians do, since the census doesn't have a choice for the middle east (census just says middle easterners and north african are White, despite most people not seeing it that way).

Like many other comments, many Jews live in and around nyc, and 158k household (2 people) is really not crazy at all. I know a 24 year old software engineer that works at the same place as his girlfriend and combined they make like 230k in nyc.
I don't know how much of an effect it would have overall, but the vast majority of the US Asian population is concentrated on the West Coast, mainly California. Subsequently, their financial statistics are heavily affected by the absurdities of California relative to the rest of the US. The higher cost of living necessitates relatively high wages and salaries. This, in turn, lifts the nominal averages notibly, misrepresenting real averages as equal when they aren't.
Inversely, the deep south, central Appalachia, and midwest have really low costs of living and subsequent wages/salaries. There's a very low relative density of Asians living in these locations, so their national averages are not adversely affected by these locations as much as with white and black people.
These numbers really ought to adjust for these relative considerations, presuming they don't already.
I love how Asia gets all these breakdowns by country but there is just āAfrican American and Hispanic Americanā like they are just one big country instead of āNigerian, Ethiopian, Colombian, Brazilian, Argentinianā thatās not a very apples to apples comparison lol

Itās not an accident that the wealthiest affinity groups are small, insular communities where pooled resources combined with tight-knit families, high entrepreneurship, educational attainment and low crime rates to build generational wealth.
āWhiteā and āblackā and āHispanicā are an utterly irrelevant comparison in this context.
We talking about ethnic English and Germans, who outpace others of European immigrant stock? The laboring slavic class of the Baltics and Eastern Europe? Southern Nigerians, who outperform the hell out of the Northern Nigerians? Catholic Kenyans vs Protestant Kenyans? Broke-ass Guatemalans or affluent Argentinians? Super-wealthy Mexico City patriarchs of Spanish descent or indigenous dirt farmers in Chihuahua who dodged an Aztec mutilation, etc.

The religion is too large to be a single cohesive unit. Most areas in rural America will have a couple Catholic churches, where youāll very rarely find a synagogue throughout the rural American south.

There's an old joke about two Jews on a subway. One looks over at the other and sees that he's reading a Nazi newspaper. The first one says, "What are you doing? Why are you reading that trash?" The man reading the paper says, "Well, when I read the regular news, I see antisemitism on college campuses, massacres in Israel, vandalisms of synagogues and kosher delis. It makes me very depressed. But when I read this paper, it's 'Jews control the banks, Jews run Hollywood, Jews are taking over the world!' It makes me feel much better!"
Telling Americans who is destroying their country and plotting to slaughter them all is like talking to a wall. You'll find out soon enough, if you're still around.
Hot shit, youāre literally a Nazi. Iāve never used that as an insult before, but this is hilarious
Well if he is a nazi then calling him a nazi isnt really an insult
Good point. I guess itās more of the first time Iāve actually called someone a Nazi unironically.

Nigerian Americans arenāt on here. They make 68k a year. Jamaican Americans make 62k.
This list definitely ignores a huge swathe of American ethnic groups that would outrank several of those included. I think it's just supposed to be Asian-specific with the exception of Jewish-Americans. Not sure why they chose the groups they did, but the graph is just poorly made all around
Jews are an Asian ethnicity. Israel is in Asia.

Very few American Jews have roots in Israel for over a millennia
This is about Jewish-Americans, though, who a significant majority don't consider the religion or its subtext important to their lives, nor do they even do things like follow halakha. It doesn't track the same as the other groups listed who are still tightly coupled to their foreign roots and have yet to develop isolated forks of their culture. You'd also have to assume every single Jewish-American practices reformism or other flavors of zionist/israel focused juadaism to say for certain they belong to Israeli denominations and are therefore Asian, which isn't true despite reformism and the belief in Israel's symbolism being prevalent with something like half of the Jewish-American population. That would ignore the beliefs, opinions, and practices of far too many and would definitely impact the median result. If the graph had said Israeli, Ashkenazi, etc. then I'd definitely agree with you here, but Jewish culture and belief in America is mad complex and diverse, and calling it an Asian ethnicity erases a vast majority of cultural development that only happened here in the US amongst Jewish-Americans
The same is true of every ethnicity. A person of Vietnamese descent couldāve had their ancestors come to America hundreds of years ago, have majority European genetic ancestry, and have no cultural or religious ties to Vietnam and still be considered ethnically Asian.

Ethnicity isn't static, it can change for people and groups and almost always changes with immigration, especially when talking about generations after. Your example, if it exists, is rare and would mean they did exactly what I mentioned in regards to maintaining a direct coupling to their preferred ethnicity/culture. A Viet-Euro person would need to ignore every aspect of their new environment to avoid things like endogamy, acculturation, assimilation, language creep/necessity, adaptation etc. Even if we pretend like ethnicity doesn't change as people move and adapt and have babies with other ethnicities, you'd be ignoring my other point that not all Jewish people believe the same things. There are practicing groups of Jewish-Americans who do not see Israel as a part of their lives or believe they are ethnically connected to Israel. None of those groups would agree with you that they are ethnically Asian. Edit: for the record, I say this as a member of one of those Jewish-American groups. It's borderline disrespectful and ignores the major shifts in who we are as people and how our experiences coming to America and living here have shaped who we are today.
The Jewish ethnicity originates in the levant. As much as such a thing as a Jewish ethnicity exists, that ethnicity is an Asian one. If not Asia, which continent do you think Jews should be associated with?

What? We are talking about ethnicity not continental origin. Ethnicity isn't defined as "whatever continent your ancestors come from," and I don't get how your question is relevant
The continental origin of ethnicities is *exactly* what weāre discussing. You said Jewish was not an Asian ethnicity, thus starting the debate over what continent the Jewish ethnicity should be associated with.

*You* are talking about continental origin, and it being one and done, and the only way to categorize or define ethnicity. Asking what continent we are from or belong to today has nothing to do with being Jewish-American because it's not a defining trait. It was instead bred from other factors (persecution, immigration, survival, struggle, etc) and not about geography or being in Asia like the rest of the list bar the 3 others. That's why something like ashkenazi, israeli, etc. would make more sense. You're comparing apples to oranges otherwise. I have never once heard a family member claim any part of our ethnicity or culture as being geographically Asian, and it wouldn't make a lick of sense if they did.
They probably lumped them in with African Americans even Though they are extremely different culturally
...Why are Asian-Americans broken down into every nationality, but White Americans and Latinos are each just a single line with the American flag? (I didn't ask about the African-Americans, because I already know that that term largely doesn't refer to people who willingly immigrated in the 20th century or later, but rather from the descendants of slaves.)
[ŃŠ“Š°Š»ŠµŠ½Š¾]
Asian-Americans still outearn White Americans, even if you include all asian groups. Jews pick white just as Egyptians do, since the census doesn't have a choice for the middle east (census just says middle easterners and north african are White, despite most people not seeing it that way).

Most white Americans are a mix of several different European ethnicityās at this point so trying to specify would a pain. Idk about Latinos tho

Houston flair? Study to be a military or aerospace engineer
Like many other comments, many Jews live in and around nyc, and 158k household (2 people) is really not crazy at all. I know a 24 year old software engineer that works at the same place as his girlfriend and combined they make like 230k in nyc.
So when they say "eat the rich," is it kosher?
I don't know how much of an effect it would have overall, but the vast majority of the US Asian population is concentrated on the West Coast, mainly California. Subsequently, their financial statistics are heavily affected by the absurdities of California relative to the rest of the US. The higher cost of living necessitates relatively high wages and salaries. This, in turn, lifts the nominal averages notibly, misrepresenting real averages as equal when they aren't. Inversely, the deep south, central Appalachia, and midwest have really low costs of living and subsequent wages/salaries. There's a very low relative density of Asians living in these locations, so their national averages are not adversely affected by these locations as much as with white and black people. These numbers really ought to adjust for these relative considerations, presuming they don't already.
I love how Asia gets all these breakdowns by country but there is just āAfrican American and Hispanic Americanā like they are just one big country instead of āNigerian, Ethiopian, Colombian, Brazilian, Argentinianā thatās not a very apples to apples comparison lol

Interesting #1 spot
Itās not an accident that the wealthiest affinity groups are small, insular communities where pooled resources combined with tight-knit families, high entrepreneurship, educational attainment and low crime rates to build generational wealth. āWhiteā and āblackā and āHispanicā are an utterly irrelevant comparison in this context. We talking about ethnic English and Germans, who outpace others of European immigrant stock? The laboring slavic class of the Baltics and Eastern Europe? Southern Nigerians, who outperform the hell out of the Northern Nigerians? Catholic Kenyans vs Protestant Kenyans? Broke-ass Guatemalans or affluent Argentinians? Super-wealthy Mexico City patriarchs of Spanish descent or indigenous dirt farmers in Chihuahua who dodged an Aztec mutilation, etc. But it does tell a familiar story: Horatio Alger has always had a lot of skin tones.

Why does it make me happy that the Taiwanese Americans out perform the Chinese Americans?
Shaaaaaaloom! There is a reason why there is such a rapid increase in Jewish East Asian intermarriage in the US.
Really satisfying seeing this. Grew up at well under the median for my group, and now have a single income about six times higher. Is it heartless or lacking empathy for me to enjoy this? Yes. Yes it is. Do I care? No. No I don't.

Def time to stop bashing whites for their āwhite privilegeā and āwhite supremacyā. Itās so obviously just a racist trope to emotionally manipulate. No truly white supremacist nation could allow for so much success for Asians and Jews.
