How are white people stereotyped in predominantly non-white cultures?

My wife from Cameroon was very surprised when she first saw white people that were poor.

She didn't think it was possible.

However, once I went to visit a market and I heard a guy shout,

White people are rich, but not this one. This white guy is poor.

That was probably a clever way to get my attention to sell me something.

Maybe as a consequence of being thought of as rich, white people are very important or prestigious.

Once we met a cousin of my wife who was bragging that her husband had several cars.

My wife replied, yeah, well, my husband is white. In Cameroon, most people believe in sorcery. One guy who was

apparently knowledgeable about these kinds of things told me sorcery doesn't work on white people.

Plus 10 magic defense. Frick yes. Hidden racial bonuses for the win.

In the mountains of Peru, it's an urban legend of sorts that white people will steal children.

So much so that when I'm around a misbehaving child, the mother almost always threatens the

child by saying that the gringo, me, will take you away. That's kind of funny. As a white,

I hold the stereotype that many South Americans would kidnap me and either sell me for ransom

or as part of a substance

cartel plot.

Back in high school, we had 60% foreigners, Korean or Taiwanese mostly.

The funniest thing I've ever been called was a round-eyed burger muncher.

The kid was serious, too.

When I lived in the Middle East, I was told by an Arab friend that she always thought that

white people, mainly the women, were very loose with their bedroom morals, and stuck up.
