It is a common misconception that most Chinese Americans are working in the hi-tech industry. A lot of Chinese students do not study engineering or computer science. Even engineering PhDs from top schools may not find jobs with high paying high-tech companies. That's why postdoctoral programs exist. In addition, if one person makes good money, his or her spouse may not have the same high-paying job. That's why you can't simply add two numbers together.

The norm I referred to originally applies to general American families, including those with at least one Chinese American. If you only refer to a very small group of people with highly unique characteristics, your statement can also hold true. But it does not represent the general Chinese American families and the "norm" loses its meaning.
