What Are The Benefits Of Being Asian Or Asian-American?

Let’s go through the benefits of being Asian or Asian-American. As a Chinese-American, I’m so glad to be Chinese and have Chinese heritage.

After all, around 1.35 billion people speak a form of Chinese. And another 1.1 billion people speak English in the world.

There are so many benefits of being Asian or Asian-American, it’s kind of absurd. One of the main things is how high Asian-Americans score in school.
