Emigró a EE.UU. sin hablar bien inglés y quedó a cargo de su hija, con US$10.000 de ahorros: así los multiplicó

La historia de Venus Wang podría ser la de muchos otros migrantes en Estados Unidos: hace algunos años, se quedó sin empleo, estaba recién divorciada de su exesposo y solamente contaba con 10.000 dólares en efectivo para cuidar de su hija. Desesperada por multiplicar sus ahorros, comenzó a investigar y encontró un interesante método con el que gana casi un millón de dólares al año, según reveló.

El plan de una mujer que ahora todos buscan replicar

Su relato forma parte de la serie Make It Millennial Money de la CNBC. Justamente Wang es oriunda de China, pero en 2013 se mudó a Estados Unidos. “Mi inglés era malo, era terrible”, recordó sobre esos primeros pasos en Norteamérica.

En esos comienzos en EE.UU poco a poco se acostumbró al estilo de vida de la sociedad, el cual es muy diferente al país asiático de donde llegó. “La gente aquí es muy independiente“, expresó Wang en relación con el mundo personal y laboral.
