Most of the Indians and Chinese that I went to school with were the sons and daughters of doctors, lawyers, and professors.

What makes you believe that Indian/Chinese doctors, lawyers and professors are not poor by US standards?

You might be a "rich" corporate lawyer living in Bandra, but that doesn't mean you can afford a car, or more than 1 room/person for your family (most poor Americans have these things).

Well, what about having several house servants? Rich Americans don't have these things.

Despite having 'help', it seems that the Indians tend to migrate towards the US, rather than people from the US migrating towards India. See my other comment.
