American Dream Interviews

{Nena Lazaridis}
The American dream has changed, and those who seek it have changed. in the 60's Northerners Europeans came for a better life. More money work hard ,assimilate get an education etc. today we have a very small amounts of Europeans but more Latin Americans in the U.S. assimilation is challenged, education is not seek ed and different job opportunities.In the 70 and 80 people migrated for a better education opportunity to succeed America.
My parents and brother had to assimilate but luckily for me i didn't ( because I was only three and learned English as my primary language). US is my home.

When coming to America at the age of 16 I had only one American dream which was to finish a higher education before i reached the age of twenty eight. With my Family back in Athens Greece i worked hard for several years working and going to school. Finally the day came when i was accepted in Jacksonville University. There i still worked hard in school and at work and i was luckily enough to get a scholarship to NC State. there i was able to finish my Dream at the age of 27 I left N.C State with a PhD. But then a new dream came into the picture which was to get job in Cooperate America ( the Pharmaceutical industry) which will give me the Finical freedom and retire before i reach the age of 55. At the same time i have been able to grow a healthy family, and travel with them together in Foreign places. At the moment i have been able to complete 70% of my overall American Dream.

I too chose my parents too interview, but you need one more. Your dads dream was similar to my dads, but your dad came much earlier, it sounds like it was rough. Your moms interview didnt say what her dream was.
