My assumption/pre-requisite is that if you can become an immigrant, in a few situations, your family is rich already or successful back home thus you would have connections already and you're probably in mid to high economy class.

I think you can say the same thing too everywhere: Work Hard, Develop Skills, Market yourself.

Marketing seems to be the key point in developing countries probably because the average people are not exposed to certain kind of hypes.

That's not always a good assumption to make. Not everyone who makes it to the US is rich or well connected. In fact, the vast majority of immigrants to the US have not been rich or well connected back home, which is why they immigrated to the US in the first place.

Regardless what my assumptions are it's not a matter of "Right or Wrong" because if there are 100 immigrants, there will be 100 paths/experiences :).

Your path is different than the path of these people who come back home because they have better opportunities there than here.
