How you will survive in USA? Not even open position in fast foods!

You need 2000$ to make a living there, and min salary is 7$/ hour.

You will struggle, so do I..

Unfortunately, the job situation is not only in the USA. You will struggle anywhere in this bad economy...

Hell I have a college degree and I am terrified about finding my first job...My friend from college has been looking for a job for 8 months and still unemployed..

Many of the winners I know are living with other winners or country mates. Some of them are doing jobs way below their education. One winner that was a doctor in Nigeria is working as a security guard as he completes his requirements to work here. Depending on your status in your country this may not be acceptable, for some even the lowest of positions here still offer more hope than home.

This will not be over quickly. You will not enjoy this.

Simple - then do not come. No one forces you to do it and I do not quite understand why you even complain about it - US government gives you an opportunity to immigrate and it sounds like you have an expectation that they will secure you at least job, housing and brand new Ferrari in the garage...

Moving to a foreign (for you) country is a big step. I participated in the DV lottery for 14 years before I got lucky. Yet I even participated the first time I knew that I wanted to live in the U.S. and knew how to make a living. It's important that you come with realistic expectations; the time when the U.S. was the Land of Milk and Honey is long over. Now a dog eats dog mentality abounds and if you have been unable to make a living in your own country, you will have to fight an uphill battle in a country where you are a foreigner competing with citizens.

So the first thing you need is realistic expectations

The second thing is savings to survive for at least a few months

Then you need skills that make you a desirable employee

Finally, you need persistence, have a decent resume and be willing to knock on a lot of doors.

Never give up, never surrender.

There is no room in this country for hyphenated Americanism. When I refer to hyphenated Americans, I do not refer to naturalized Americans. Some of the very best Americans I have ever known were naturalized Americans, Americans born abroad. But a hyphenated American is not an American at all . . . . The one absolutely certain way of bringing this nation to ruin, of preventing all possibility of its continuing to be a nation at all, would be to permit it to become a tangle of squabbling nationalities, an intricate knot of German-Americans, Irish-Americans, English-Americans, French-Americans, Scandinavian-Americans or Italian-Americans, each preserving its separate nationality, each at heart feeling more sympathy with Europeans of that nationality, than with the other citizens of the American Republic . . . . There is no such thing as a hyphenated American who is a good American. The only man who is a good American is the man who is an American and nothing else.

you think you(both of you) can play the smart #### with your comment on ferrari when your government is not even able to give jobs to their own citizen and have 15 trillions debt to pay, 15t=15'000'000'000'000,

want a proof? check this little schmuck: http://www.usdebtclock.org/

you think it s easy to say to 50'000 foreigner to immigrate to USA and help the USA when USA is going to collapse? what will happen next? you can not even find a job for yourselves, or have to live in a tent.

so far, it s the foreigners (included illegal mexicans)who make the hard job because US citizen are too lazy.But since you have destroyed these lousy paid jobs as well, how do you think foreigner will make a living now?.

"dont come here to rip the benefit of our country, bouhouhou!!!"

grow up! without foreigners, how people working for USCIS and DHS will make a living...?picking oranges in a florida field?

on top of that, I am going to give 1000$ to the USA to process my green card, you should say thank you to me!

Do you know what this word means?

You are very sarcastic and angry. I really wish I knew who you were because I doubt you would keep your lottery visa if the folks in charge had an inkling about the venom you spew and plan to bring into our country.

If that is really how you feel then please do everyone in the USA a favor and remain in your own country. If you do that we will thank you for NOT coming in!
