Introduction
The United States offers the newcomer more economic flexibility than any other country. This
is not to say that making a living in the United States is easy. It is not. It can be very difficult
to find a job in the United States, especially for someone who doesn't speak English well.
American workplace customs can also be difficult to learn and understand. What is true about
the American economy is that it is so large, so changeable, that an ambitious person can
always find some way to make money often a great deal of it.
