Oh and Btw, back to the question, I came here in the early 90's, with a student visa, and a dollar and a dream

if i was in the P.I. i would've been a nurse with a BA or even a doctor. We were nowhere near poor in the Philippines. My mom was a Dentist. My dad is the one who had unstable money. It was such an unnecessary move, my dad just got impatient and chased his dream and dragged us along with him. We had a 10 year visa too so we could've went in and out of the country with ease. all he had to do was wait 6 more damn years for us to have a degree that could get us a green card fast. but yeah what's worse is he realized how hard life is in the US w/o papers and he has the audacity to blame us for why we're such losers when i should have a career.whatever.
