I got into an argument with someone who was defending the American dream because their parents came here with "nothing" from a poor country and were able to become respected Ivy League professors
Their parents had advanced degrees, for free, from the USSR
A lot of immigrant parents love dramatizing what they went through and you end up with a lot of people that moved to the US with no money in their pocket and a dream to thrive. I've met a few like this with parents who came from my country. I meet their parents and immediately recognize their Spanish as someone who grew up with privilege.
I learned that the Saudi guys we hung out with in college were from well off families and their dad's were business owners. I'm pretty sure they mistreated their employees at best, but they were probably doing a little slavery.
