“HELPING PEOPLE IS LIKE THE UNFORTUNATE BY-PRODUCT” I DIED
rest in peace
It really is tho, its like "I SAID YOU BE A DOCTOR, NOT DOCTOR FOR OTHER PEOPLE!!" And the kids like "Mom.... Thats literally the job..."
You should see a doctor. unless you're a chinese parent
Health insurance in a nutshell
I like the embedded joke you put in your comment hehe
"Helping people is at the bottom of the list for being a doctor." 1000% LOL
But doctors do help people...And take their money.
Zhy Sun they only help if you have money
It’s NOT even ON the list 😂😂
if by a miracle it MADE INTO the list that is😂
@@MegaKingTom YES US GOV DOES
Me as a Chinese guy: "I don't wanna be a doctor." My mom: "So you have chosen... ENGINEER"
You can get doctorate as an engineer.
Mum: Orrrrrr lawyer
what did you choose though? im curious
“But i dont want to be engineer either..” Mom: “ah, yes, the negotiator. So you have chosen… MATHEMATICIAN FOR NASA
@@newprojects7847 Artist, which kinda explains why my mom kicked me out
what I find even more astounding is, for as wide and diverse Asia is as a continent, this is almost universal with Asian parents
Exactly 🤣🤣🤣 I don’t understand how it turned out that way but it’s so truueueeee 🤣 I was watching BTS video few months back where Min Yoongi referred how parents let you cry in stores and say “I am going home, you stay here” and I was like Yo that’s Indian parents as well... I was so shocked To see the similarity 🤣🤣🤣
Those are simple paths to being middle class or somewhat upper middle class. They're not even very high goals... It's mostly just "We want our kids to have decently good lives."
@@Leto2ndAtreides Bro doctors play in money, it isn't "we want a decent life for you". It's like "We want you to be so rich that our grand kids play with money". And it's good.
@@arminius6506 can confirm my grandpa was a doctor and was able to playin money all the time he bought a motorcycle he never rode lol
And Nigerian 😅
The best part? Ronny Chieng's Chinese family name, 錢, literally means Money.
lol is it a common name, I wonder?
That last name is not that common but also not that rare, but it’s a family name you can’t choose. However there were plenty of parents in early days would name their children “get rich” or something like that.
@@LegacyFTW It was a royal family name around 1000 years ago, which made it one of the most respected & popular names back then. 趙錢孫李 were the top four, where 趙 and 李 were the imperial family name of Song & Tang Dynasty.
Interesting. In Spanish there's people whos last name is "Rico" wich means "rich"
@@RicardoCarapia Does Puerto Rico then mean rich port, port of riches or something like that?
these weren't even jokes they were just straight facts
Emily Jiang which is the joke.
Very funny facts
really true
Mmm hmm yup yes
truth hurts and pain of other people are funny to others
As an Indian I can confirm that whatever he said is 100% true in an Indian society as well.
India is in Asia so he did cover that when he said that statement
yeah man pretty fucked up ngl
Lol
same with my croatian parents lol
What's the name of your god of money?
Chinese parents: "Why aren't you applying to med school?" Also Chinese Parents: "I have a fever it must be because I ate too much tropical fruit"

Nothing can make an Asian parent see a doctor. So true.
Nono , they will go see a doctor when it's almost free. I know Taiwanese that lives all over the world that will fly back to taiwan to see doctors there. lol.... cuz doctors in the health care system there is much cheaper then almost anywhere else in the world & they don';t even have to wait.. if they don't have taiwan citizenship then ya they don't like seeing doctors. lol
Except to see them graduate from med school....
So fucking true

Thanks for explaining what a joke is again
He looks exactly like grown-up Calvin in the Calvin and Hobbes series. Resemblance is uncanny.
“helping people is at the bottom of the list” as an asian, fact 😂
And people wonder why healthcare sucks
Honestly his golden phrase of "Hope You Get Rich" stick in my head every single Chinese New Year. Anyway for those who see my comment, wishing you a happy Chinese New Year and HOPE YOU GET RICH! 🤭
HOPE YOU GET RICH, BRO
GONG XI FA CAI, HOPE YOU GET RICH
Hope we BOTH get rich
Hope we all get rich
That's so true. Every year, hope you get rich is in my head hahaha
At least Persians give you the option of Lawyer, Engineer OR Doctor. Three options. Very generous
lol
@ Sabo Rivaille, what’s the second tier for Persians for parental respect? Like architect or banker or what? Just curious, no offense.
c haha good question. Fortunately only my dad is Persian and he’s really laid back. But my aunties are pretty traditional. And their kids are lawyers, dentists and psychiatrist. You could be right with architecture. My brother and uncle are architects. “Oh that’s pretty good” they would think haha. I’m a college drop out and that wouldn’t fly with some relatives.
@@saborivaille1258 There are no such people on this earth called Persians there is a group called Iranians are you talking about them ?
Mohamed Yusuf well Iranian is a nationality. Persian is the language, ethnicity and culture. I’m not Iranian but ethnically I’m half Persian. There are many Iranians with various ethnicities, you can be Iranian of Persian descent, Arab , Azari, Kurdish ect. The country was called Persia not long ago by the way.
he should include the joke that Chinese people so rich they even buy money to burn money and send it to their relatives in the afterlife. :p

Maybe he still will...
omg also clothes and cars, I was like do we still need to drive after we die... lol

Haha!! As a previous figure skating coach this is so true. The 1st generation immigrant moms would walk their 3 year old kids into the rink and tell us that they want their kid to go to the Olympics. Almost all our Asian skaters would get full rides to Yale and Harvard for medical school. Love you Ronnie!

Calon Rocker they throw their hard wallets into the fire out of respect for the parents.
Lord😂😂and I'm currently learning mandarin now. I think I needed to know this too

Refreshing to see an Asian comedian who doesn’t lean on exaggerated Asian accents to do their humor
@@teacher_ps Russell Peters
Chaplay which one doesn’t? Jo Koy, dat Phan, Russell Peters etc Pretty much every successful Asian comedian I’ve seen does the exaggerated accents in their comedy. It’s a cliche stereotype at this point
In before overly sensitive people say he’s relying on stereotypes still
Roger I think every comedian does that tbh Some of the best comedians alive did too Chappell, Louis, Pryor But at least he’s not leaning on the accent to force his shit to be funny
but why see previous comments
I'm Asian. I'm studying medicine. I can confirm this. For prestige and Money. My parents also don't like visiting doctor. Edit:- Mfs this much upvotes :")
Okay but do they rely on "alternative" medicine, or do they just avoid Western-style medicine?
@@mauvemouse9259 i won't say they exactly are medicines, some of them really have medicinal effects, but most of them don't have prolonged effects,while some of them are just placebos.
yes.. because in history class difference is huge... chinese parents generally want their children to be educated (doctors, work in the government, etc) because statistically, you are much more likely to flip your social status within 1 generation when you are educated...
OMG. So it is true 😆😆😆
Nobody does because doctors talk to you for 5 min and here is a 300 dollar bill take some tylenol if you feel like shit again come again we will do some tests.
As a Filipino, I agree even though most of us (including myself) were pushed to be nurses as this is our passport to go to Western countries and earn more.
Best way to marry a doctor is to become a nurse

I bet my Mom that I would never get married, when I was 10 years old. She even had me right it out on paper and sign it. When I finally got married at 27, she busted out this old yellow paper, with my signature, at my wedding! She held out her hand and said "Pay up sucker. $10 dollars!" Everyone in that Chapel fell out laughing at the look on my face.
She's got an awesome sense of humor.

He is so darn ruthlessly honest !!!!!
I am a Chinese and I approve this message. Actually, some Chinese love money so much they decide their family name is Chieng, which means money. Am I right Ronny Money?
well... u dun really got a choice on you last name, do you.... also you wouldn't assume Bill Gates loves gates... it's just a sir name, derived from 篯, which has nothing to do money, but more to do with bamboos and horse tacks.

It is only because Asians still believe by working hard you could break though social classes, western people especially Americans used believed this too, but after the capitalism become mature(hard to join the 1%), working hard is meaningless. Of course majority embrace Anti-intellectualism.

The kick when he said “get it out of the way” 💀💀

I nearly spat out my water when he said “Asian parents are the last group of people you can convince to see a doctor” 😂
it's true ..
Mexicans, Indians, many other groups are the last group of people you can convince to see a doctor.
his parents have to be SO proud of him. a smart, well super smart actually, and insightful person.
Very true for some families. People want their children to get into a profession to take other people's money as much as possible, along with having prestige and power. It's not about finding a calling or what the child would enjoy doing in life. It's about the responsibility of earning and taking care of the family. Money, prestige and power are considered the main factors required to secure stability and prosperity for the family.
Indian wants their kids to be a doctor because they don't want to spend money on seeing other doctors 😂😂 u will get free health care at home✌🏻
True....😂😂😂😂
Goddamn, Indian families will actually trust your advice as a doctor. XD Chinese mom and dad will put onions in the cardinal directions cause WeChat told em before listening to the medical advice of their PH.D. graduate child.
Mexicans are not very different. (I'm mexican)
Hey, ENGINEERING is first on the list. I think every Indian family have 2 to 3 engineer in the family
And they are the worst doctors ever
By the way, Ronny's surname: "Chieng (钱)" literally means "money" in Chinese. :D
Very ironic then!
Lol u r kidding me!
@@brendagordon4571 Nope. Not joking. You can go to his Wikipedia page. Copy and paste his surname onto Google Translate and see for yourself. :D
Wtf ure right
Chinese people love money so much, the Chinese guy self-aware enough to point it out to everyone is literally surnamed "钱"!
Chinese here. These are 100% facts. And I was waiting for the actual jokes to come out from his mouth.
Yoooooo I never knew this guy was a fucking comedian. From Crazy Rich Asians, to Shang Chi. Glad I found this out. Dude is hilarious man.
I love it that this guy just offhandedly throws a joke about money printing causing inflation, and people not understanding basic macro economics. Brilliant.
It’s the Asian math expert in him 🤣🤣🤣
@@MelePaasi Hes not even an expert, just adequate, which cant be said for the west.
Екатерина Геннадиевна the joke is Asians are good at math... not saying he’s a math expert literally. It’s the running joke/stereotype or whatever you call it about Asians

@@wangyingsen458 Joining the 1% is necessarily something the vast majority of people can't do. Working hard is a great way to have a good life. The problem is actually that too many people, especially those who grew up on the internet while being told they deserve the world, expect to not only have a comfortable life, but be rich or famous without doing a lot of work.
I’m not even Chinese, but I’m Asian. My parents are exactly like that
@anonymous Chang India is in Asia so technically hes Asian. If u wanted to correct him u should've said he isnt an oriental.

So true! And his delivery is so good!
No joke as I was applying to pharmacy in uni, my mum would ask “are you sure you don’t want to go into medicine? You could!” I would refuse because I knew I was never cut out for medicine. This is why there are so many doctors without the right attitude. They want to get rich, but have no idea that they’re doing a profession that requires compassion
Same here. I'm Ghanaian and people were like why don't I just do medicine😑 I had the qualifications but naah, It wasn't just for me.
Wait if you are a pharmacist then you are in medicine lol
Interesting insight. Never considered this
This comment wins KZhead for the day man your honest and real as hell I dig .
@@CrazyLocoInsane1 It's different; medicine deals with more physiology and anatomy, but pharmacists learn about drugs and how they work. I can't deal with all those stuff like residency and blood, lol

Ronny Chieng does a great show, mixing humor & satire with social commentary. Original and really hilarious. My family is Italian on both sides and we are just one tent away from a full-blown circus, so even not being Asian, I could relate to a lot of Ronny’s humor.

Hello pretty How are you doing??

@@dallastauranga6960 exactly lmaooooooo
Depends on whether the biz school son became a big executive/started a multimillion dollar business.
I rewatched this after watching him in "Doogie Kamealoha, MD", since he plays a doctor in it. I wish they had used him in more than just two episodes, because he was the best part of both of those episodes.
if you're reading this, I hope you get rich
"you BETTER hope that I get rich." Lmao
Laws to live by lol
lmao
"Flip the clan narrative around. Start from the bottom. Then Boom! Now we're here! We're doctors!" Ronny's delivery is so spot on and his jokes are always so intelligent. It's like a next level self-awareness.
Living in China I can attest to this 1000%. My wife is Chinese and although she doesn’t enjoy most stand up comedy, she was howling over this set. Guy is hilarious!
I don’t think doctor is the go to profession in China. China prefers civil servant over all other professions.

This is why I think this guy is hilarious. Never dull, always clever.
As one with chinese roots, I can confirm that. BUT most of the chinese gesture sayings must not be translated literally. It would as u can see just sound funny. Those "special cultural best wishes" can just be summed up as kindness and goodwill toward u. For Chinese and also for Japanese the symbolic meaning is very important.
Showed this to my mother, she thought it was funny, though mentioned that the part about being shot with an arrow was exaggeration. Then I remind her the time I got shot in the head by some kid's homemade bow & arrow and they decided to not take me to the hospital, despite a doctor there saying that wound would require at least 5 stitches. (end up not going to the hospital, but since I recovered it's all good) Edit: I almost forgot, the guy (also Asian) who shot me ended up becoming a doctor. Like this story just ended up having everything.
It just means she thinks of her own body differently. No contradiction there.
She just wanted you to be stronger...maybe in the future you can stop real arrows. :)
The fact that she thought it was credible enough to call out as exaggeration should be food for thought for people who think that this bit is "obvious" satire.
😂😂😂😂
Asian parents: You either become doctor or you become an adoption
😂😂😂
Oh no 💀
Well played.
you got it
Not Asian, but if I were Asian, be like "Fine, there are plenty of rich white people who will adopt me."

This is so funny yet so deeply critical. Smart comedian.
This is the most fabulous performance of Ronnie!
As a Chinese Malaysian, we give/receive money when attending wedding, birthday, funeral, house warming, business opening, Chinese New Year, even after death (someone will burn the money for us) By the way, other than Gong Xi Fa Cai, we have dozens of greetings to say during Chinese New Year, which are all related to money 🤣
😂😂😂
🤣🤣 they have trillion dollar fake bills to burn
Yes, I can't believe he missed that opportunity of fitting in the burning of money as well.
You have same rituals as Indians 😂
LOL jokes aside Money is everything as well as nothing. The deeper meaning to this culture of money is the experience of hardship, poverty and just to fill the stomach. While i also experience the same thing i got to experience first hand if you don't have money our family literally were only eating vegetables and salty fish for meals. Its more of a community getting together to gather enough money so that their son's can get married as well as a small sum of seed money to feed the family. Later on as the economy gets better and upward social mobility becomes much easier the Younger generation no longer experience Poverty and started to question as to why Money is so important. As for moving up the social ladder and becoming a Doctor well what is wrong with moving up the social ladder? But for those who grew up in poverty its the quickest way and ticket to provide a better life and future. But as we our Wages and quality of life goes higher younger generation not faced with the same living experience and condition wouldn't understand. They think when they are born life is so comfortable. But again Money isn't everything. However without it you cannot even donate to charity even if you want to. Look at the current condition today with the Pandemic out of control. My heart aches when i see many desperate people selling food on the streets trying to get by just to ensure their kids get fed. Its about how you choose to spend Money when you have it and its about survival when you don't.
and he did not mention that his surname "Chieng" or "Qian"(钱）, also means money...
There used to be an economics professor at MSU surnamed 钱 who named his daughter 多多。 :/

Can confirm. My mom's a doctor and people send her food almost everyday, either as a form of appreciation or as a gift. Some of the food is divine, like baked sushi!
Asked a Chinese girl I was seeing if she had any religious affiliations and she thought for a moment (perhaps to translate in her head) and then said in all earnestness that her religion is money. I laughed in disbelief. She said, somewhat hurt, "don't laugh!" I could not understand it at the time. Money is energy, just that some people soil their energy to get it.
You can actually expand on that, it means more than what it sounds like. Money is just paper, it is currency, it requires both sides to acknowledge its value, and it means utterly nothing without a civilized society. Civilization is a word so often used yet seldom reflected upon, really it simply means working together instead of competing against. Instead of just robbing other people's food stock with force, you decide to trust others, each specialize in a field, and as a result collectively produce more than you would otherwise. You just focus on making melons and get real good at it, I'll focus on making peaches, then in the end both of us can get both melons and peaches in abundance. But there are many specifics that each of us would want and need, everybody need different things at different times, so we all agree to use money as an universal currency to trade for what each of us want. Money itself, already IS social credit. But the existence of this system is actually not always a guarantee, we are just too used to it that we often take it for granted. It actually requires a lot of faith, faith in the fact that other people also agree to this approach, that other people are willing to cooperate. Because sadly, if they are simply adhering to short-term maximum benefit principal, simply robbing you is always the more profitable method with least effort. They don't need to spend years and specialize in a craft, they don't need to pay effort, they just need to get big and strong and then rob you by force. To be able to say "alright I'm not going to rob you, in fact I'm going to rely on you, and I'm also happy that you rely on me, the measurement of this reliance is the money you are paying me or I'm paying you" requires faith in others, faith in the unknown (others are always unknown, especially others who specialize in what you don't know). It is always a gamble to trust others, and you know it, yet you take that leap of faith with each exchange of money. So from that regard, it does become a religion of sorts --- except one would argue that you see "miracles" from this religion actually manifest in front of you quite often, reaffirming to you that it indeed works. What she's actually saying, is that her religion is "civilization". That against all odds, and even if she doesn't have the full answer, even if often there's a XXXX ton of obstacles, she still have faith that people can rely on each other and get better lives. And like you said, as with all religions, sometimes people get reeled off the track if they don't stop and reflect a bit --- if you try to grab money in such a nasty way that destroys the foundation of a cooperative civilization, well now that money is worth nothing because no one is producing anything. This is also why despite the fact that merchants and business men make even more money, Chinese parents still feel much better about their children being doctors and engineers --- these are professionals with a craft, with something solid that they can offer to others. No matter where you go, a doctor can at least earn a meal by giving people a better chance at being alive. No matter where you go, an engineer can make things and design things that do solid work and provide solid outcome. At the end of the day it comes down to faith in other living people just like yourself.
I didn’t know the guy from crazy rich Asians was a comedian... he’s fkn hilarious and reminds me of one of my best friends
Too much American influence to pursue what he wants to do XD
He has a law degree from Australia and disappointed his parents by becoming a stand up comic. Look up his segments from The Daily Show with Trevor Noah. He cracks me up every time.
