हाल अमेरिकामा रहेका नेपालीहरु बिभिन्न बर्गका छन्, शायद धेरै त विद्यार्थी नै होलान्, जसमध्ये पनि अधिकांशले त आफ्नै खर्चमा पढ्छन् र केही भने assistantship पाएर पढ्दै छन्। assistantship मा पढ्नेहरुलाई त खासै समस्या नहोला तर जो विद्यार्थीहरु आँफै खर्च जुटाएर पढि रहेका छन् तिनिहरुको जिबन प्राय: कस्टप्रद नै छ। नेपालबाट घरपरिवारले पैसा पठाउन सक्ने स्थिती प्राय:को हुँदैन अनी कानूनीरुपमा काम गर्ने अधिकार पनि उनिहरुसँग हुँदैन। त्यसपछिको एउटै मात्र उपाय भनेको गैरअमेरिकी ब्यबसायीहरुकोमा काम गर्न जानु अथवा घण्टा हान्न जानु। यस्ता घण्टा हान्न जाने ठाँउको साहुजिहरुमध्ये धेरै जसो भारतीयहरुनै हुन्छन्। तर अमेरिकामा केही नेपालीहरु पनि यस्ता छन् जस्ले gas store, restaurant, gift shop र grocery जस्ता ब्यबसायहरु चलाएर बसेका छन् र दुई चार जना नेपालीलाई काम दिने हैसियत राख्दछन्। काम खोज्दै भौतारीरहेका नेपाली विद्यार्थीलाई यस्ता नेपाली ब्यबसायी मिल्दा ढुङ्गा खोज्दा देउता मिले जस्तै अनुभव हुन्छ। आफ्नो नेपाली दाजुभाइ वा दिदीबहिनी भनेर एक किसिमको बनबटी माया देखाँउदै यि नेपाली ब्यबसायिहरुले काम त दिन्छन्, तर ती विद्यार्थीहरुको बाध्यताको फाईदा उठाउदै साह्रै कम पारीश्रमिक दिन्छन्, उनिहरुले दिएको पारीश्रमिक बजारमा चलनचल्तिको पारीश्रमिक भन्दा आधा मात्र हुन्छ, अझ कतिले त घण्टाको होइन महिनाको हिसाबले पैसा दिने भन्छन् अनी टन्न काम दलाउछन्। यस्तो महिनबारी तलब दिनेहरुले बिदा पनि राम्रोसँग दिदैनन्, तर पनि ती नेपाली विद्यार्थीहरु बिबस भएर काम गर्न वाध्य छन्। यो नेपालीहरु माथि नेपालीहरुकै शोषण किन? के यही हो नेपाली नेपाली बिचको आत्मियता? कती धेरै पैसा कमाउनु छ यि हाम्रा नेपाली ब्यबसायीहरुलाई? के यि ब्यबसायीहरुले आफ्नो सँघर्शका दिनहरु बिर्सें? बरु यि नेपाली ब्यबसायीहरुको तुलनामा हामीले तथानाम 'धोती' भनेर गाली गर्ने गरेका भारतीयहरुले राम्रो पारीश्रमिक दिन्छन्।
आज सिङो नेपाल जातियताको द्वन्दमा फसेको छ। हरेक जातजाती आ-आफ्नो राज्य बनाउनमा जुटेका देखिएका छन्। तर बिदेशमा बसेका हामी सम्पूर्ण नेपाली जसरी एक अर्कोलाई भेट्दा खुशी हुन्छौ, नेपालीहरुको हकहितको लागि जसरी सँगसंस्था बनाएर सभा सम्मेलन गर्छौ, त्यही किसिमको माया सद्भाब हाम्रा नेपाली ब्यबसायिहरुले पनि नेपाली विद्यार्थीहरुमाथी देखाँउन सके कती राम्रो हुन्थ्यो। ल ठीक छ तपाईंहरु नेपालीपनको भाबनालाई भन्दा आफ्नो ब्यबसायिकतालाई बढी प्राथमिकता दिनुस् तर कम से काम यिनिहरुको शोषण त नगर्नुस्!

i liked your last comment, i do believe that Nepali students if they dont' have total financial support to continue their studies should stay back and work hard over there rather than just jumping to the boat of uncertinity and hoping that everything will go well once they arrive here. what tears me apart is sometimes i see lots of talented Nepali younge brothers who quit their studies and go out of status. it's sad, they could do much better back home. and immigration process that starts from f1 to GC is a long and agonizing process and lately i'm seeing some Nepalis having to go home or try to immigrate to canada with no gc after all that. and i'm sorry yesterday and this morning i was personally little frustrated cuz someone called me sand nigger after 13 years of my struggle in the usa, and i was just minding my own business. it's funny how they generalize allt he people in the world with the easy thing to catogorize. for them all asians are asians, they dont' care that korea and japan and china have different language and culture and they may have not even liked each other. similar, they like go generalize all indians, Nepalis with sand niggers unless proven otherwise. they dont' know and care to know that all dark people are not muslims. but that is a whole different topic, i guess the topic was how some Nepalis take advantage of other unfortunate ones.  i apologize for any negativity.

Everest Realty in MA is one of them.  Slumlords of MA.  Capitalizing on subprime morgages, victimizing seedha saaadha Nepalese.

So if you want run down apartments for rent or wanna buy a crack house don't forget EVEREST REALTY.

Kalopani;  I got $45000/month sale figures from most of the store owners I knew.  I have no personal experience like you have.  That also proves I never worked in a gas station or ever owned one.  Is that the store making $4000/day sales netting $6 to $8000/month?  I wish I had that kind of stores!

GT guru,

Nicely written thoughts and facts as well.  May be few people here in sajha think that they are the smartest ass. Even people who r working on hourly basis are not all supportive. This might be because they are working @ dhotis and getting more stings. From my experience, I can express it here that those store owner mostly came from DV program. They have no idea, what would be like worry about financial issues and sponsoring your own education and living here in US. As GT, already mentioned at the begining of his thread, there are people who are assistantship who has only the experience of time confilict but not of financial hardship. GT is among those but my hats off to him, he is still concerned about fellow nepalease student.
