I read what you say and agree some of it. To be in bisiness only for profit is to think only like peoples who get approve for 7/11 . But never your bisiness, only risk manager.
Many bisiness pay to staff more than can have for self more time than not. In Thailand a bisiness thatcan pay itself even no profit but keep staff is a happy thing.
For n sure now is no easy meat on a bone for many many. Cities and small province towns so quiet like.
If can keep alive a bisiness that not every day, week , make owner rich but can keep consistent presence and product then will gain value in a very Thai way.
"Trust is a close relative of Risk" and many run are seen run from both.
