💨 Abstract

An Afrikaner, Errol Langton, working at a US car wash after relocating from South Africa under a refugee program, advises newcomers to accept low-paying jobs initially to build stability. He emphasizes hard work and realism about lifestyle changes. Langton benefitted from US aid to start anew and warns against playing the victim. Younger South Africans often migrate to Western countries for job prospects and higher living standards.
