What does he do in the Ukraine? Did he start a business on his own, or is he studying and living off his parents' money?
I'm not really surprised by this story that much. Chinese are hustlers and are not afraid to go anywhere to make a buck or start a life. But what you don't really hear about is that these guys usually are backed by family money. Chinese save every fucking penny and pool their resources to help out their kids.
So, start-up capital helps. I'm not trying to detract from this guy's achievement, but I would be very surprised if he really landed in the Ukraine with only 20 rubles in his pocket. I'm not seeing that.
Anyway, good for him.
It's in the article really. I have seen it occasionally in EE - Chinese and Vietnamese guys making very very good money through import-export. They use their language skills and just being a local to import products from the big world-manufacturer China. They can even help local businessmen get products from China. As long as you are one of the early ones you can make a ton of money from that.
His family is likely middle-middle-class in China being able to send him to Ukraine to study, but not much else.
It seems like he just built this house:
Also - he met the girl while she was very very young - 16 or younger. Well-done - sometimes you got to catch them young, but it is amazing because she did not have plans to ride the carousel until 30.
He looks like a guy with Game, total Frame control and a strong desire to succeed, which he did.
Also that picture exemplifies everything what is right in some countries and all that is wrong in ours:
+ teenage wife (men are shamed for desiring even an 18yo - let alone a 16yo)
+ teenage wife who is happy to be a wife and mother at that age (unicorn - only sluts who forgot to put on a condom on her drug-dealer boyfriend in the West are teen-moms)
+ she cooks and bakes (that alone is noteworthy)
+ she cooks in her lingerie to please her man
+ despite her high level looks there is no princess complex visible
Is there any wonder why this picture shows us what we have lost in the West? Our grandfathers had the option of getting married to a sane, sexy, slim 16yo bride even while being 35.
Now this is what men can get if they are lucky:
The League dating app ex-carousel riders looking for Mr. Right at the ages of 30-40 with a delusion index of 10.000 and a combined notch-count approaching 4 digits - meanwhile considering themselves top-shelf-pussy. No - you harpies - that girl above is 10 times above your sexual market value for any man looking for a wife!
Why the fuck should men marry unless they get what their grandfathers had gotten? I am happy that it worked out for this bloke - in his case many guys around here might be tempted to even tie the knot.
