It revolves around two things. Those two things are luck and fortune. I guess it is because they believe if they get lucky they can get a big fortune or sometimes if they get a big fortune they believe they are lucky. I've spoken to many chinese and a lot of them said chinese people in general are poor. Some say chinese people are wealthy. It's the luck of the draw. You get what you get.

A:I'll give my two cents on the age part. It's not as easy but can definitely be done. I was 21, fresh out of university and landed my first teaching job in china as a homeroom kindergarten teacher on a pretty standard 20,000/month salary. I'm 1 year in now and am still happy. Pretty much all international kindergarten jobs on here want 2 years experience, but many will still accept if you have experience in your home country. With that being said, being white and having a nice looking face is much more of a decision factor in china vs the west, if you can- use it to your advantage. Good luck finding something! -- brinsleym
