-No idea what my health insurance is. My company provides it. I just pay like $30 out of pocket whenever I've gone.

-I have a great job. Made almost $75k last year and didn't even go to college. I joined the Airforce instead. Got out, became a cop, and then applied for a job at a nuclear power plant and got it. AND I'm among the lowest paid people there. 

-I carry my wallet everywhere I go. I sit outside on my porch at night and look at the stars. I own my own land and I'm buying my own house. Should be paid off in about a decade.

-The only debt I have is my home and basic utilities. Everything else is paid off except for my fiance's (she's white) engagement ring. I can pay it off right now but I like how the money looks in my bank account.

 

-I rarely, if ever, get sick. Sorry. My daughter (with my ex) goes to the hospital all of the time, though. Almost weekly. She has "Peach Care" do it's not expensive at all.

 

-Never been beaten up by a racist. People seem to love me and they're pretty nice. Not saying it didn't exist. I just don't see it, personally.

 

-I love meat. I may eat too much of it. My fiance is an excellent cook.

 

-I own an acre of land. My taxes were about $900 last year. 4 bedroom, two bath. Well water.

Beautiful. This is what I *want* to live. Unfortunately, like I mentioned in my OP, the immigration system has forced me into a smaller set of choices. Get my qualifications, and start a real life in a place like this.
