​I have talked with a few mainland Chinese people over the last few months, and I still feel I haven’t quite gotten a “general view” or understanding of how Chinese people view the world

​The people I spoke with were very diverse Some were gay, some were married, others were students, and some were living abroad

​But none of them has quite eased my “itch” of knowing how they see the world and their political viewpoints… So for those who have interacted with both Mainland Chinese and the broader Chinese diaspora (like immigrants or those born abroad), what differences in mentality have you noticed?

    The difference in cost of living makes me question whether it’s worth it. Can you please explain this to me or casually ask so I get a real understanding?

      Lmao I will next time it comes up in convo, but I think it’s like if someone’s able to save 10% of their salary in either place, the math could add up

        I’ve known a lot of financially well off who are poor. And plenty of underserved who were fabulously wealthy.
