I don't claim to have a Phd in psychology, but this forum is a useful learning tool.

It’s called freedom for those who had the opportunity to grow up like that, know how to appreciate it, and use the opportunities it gives. We also got a return of 300k from the land. That covers our living costs in Isaan.
