A colleague originally from Cameroon warned me about this from his own experience. He explained that folks from the third world have much stronger family ties than we do, which is a Good Thing, but when they arrive in the West they feel responsible for the family they left behind and will exist on the cheapest cuts of meat etc so that they have more money to send back home.
He was proud to have done this for his family and once his sister was established in the US and able to contribute he felt that finally he could ease off and start enjoying his wealth. His advice for anyone from the West was to avoid such ties.
