Armenians are said to be very money-driven.
This is true, but they're not cheap. (Now I sound a bit conceited)

Here it's the Lebanese, they are like the "Jews" of Mexico. I agree about Indians and Chinese immigrants in the US being very money-centric.

Russel Peters on Chinese and Indian greediness.

The Chinese, probably. They're at that stage of development where there is widespread social mobility and the growing middle class hasn't quite settled down enough to move on to non-materialist values yet. When they do, probably in about two decades, the CCP had better watch out.

As far as South Asians are concerned, Sindhis (the Hindu immigrants from Pakistan currently residing in various parts of India, not the native Muslim Pakistani ones) are also known to be quite manipulative and unethical in business transactions and the like in the aim of securing as much profit as possible.
Oh yes, I forgot to mention that it is the common stereotype in India to attribute the Sindhi cheapness and manipulativeness to something we call Refugee mentality viz. hoarding and securing as many resources as possible, as seen during the Partition era where Hindu Sindhis made their way from their ancestral lands in Pakistan to various parts of North India.

I think most people in one way or another care about money. It is just the way of making it or dealing with it that changes according to the culture or the individual.

First hand experience with Jews. She's my cousin's girlfriend and I've had nothing but negative rep about her stinginess.

And the Chinese are just people are so business-minded!
