I think so too the USA has the worst set of responsibility level than any other place I have seen or studied.

You mention how personal acheivement does not mean much to a Thai whereas to a Westerner it means the world. I think it is true to an extent. Acheivements of a MA, BA High School, Retirement account and PhD mean nothing to the Thai. But to the person who has the honor, the family is still quite proud and enjoy their respective bragging rights. Ya know I mean it is not considered worthless. But the and personality must go along with it to gain respect from their peers.

LOL No the house is in Ohio. If it were in San Fran surely it would be $800,000 easily. I didn't mean exactly that he has changed either. Just the house is special to him, but does not seem to even phase his peers.
