Vietnam aint no cheap place to wine and dine anymore.
60k for coffee
86k for a meal
Street food would probably be cheaper, but still.

Would would you choose?
Living in society where you would be better off than now, but be among the poorest.
Or in one where you would be among top richest, but worse off than now?
Unsurprisingly most people choose to be bigh fish in a small pond😮

To be one step ahead of competition. Always make the harder choice.

In school they tell you what the problems are, and how to solve them with you've been taught so far.
Or worse how to cheat system to get ahead.
In real life you have to figure out what the problems are, and you often don't know if they're solvable at all.
