5. Many of those techs are also supporting their families back home too

They live here on the cheap, if they can, and they send a large portion of their paychecks back to the family at home. Sometimes the family has no other income except what the brother or cousin in America sends back home. I once worked with a guy from Egypt who did this, but it was before they had their coup so I don't know if it's a possibility anymore.
