Thank you!

You are right, it is a US specific distinction, hence why I needed to ask. In Norway and Europe we have charitable organisations, US nonprofit, and interest organisations, US not-for-profit, The difference between them are somewhat similar, but less formalised here.

My mother was in no way, shape or form an affectionate mother for me growing up. But I have several times in my life heard that I am unusually calm, patient and pleasant to be with, so I guess one can avoid being shaped too much of ones upbringing if life is humbling enough in other ways.

It is a process, but try to learn to be happy with having yourself and what you have for yourself, and nothing more. Then everything is good on your baseline living. Any addition to that is a bonus, and if that bonus disappears, the baseline is still something you are happy with.

Honest question; what is the difference between a nonprofit and a not-for-profit org?

For this reason, in Norway, prices are always including VAT, but on the receipt it is highlighted what part of the price is product/service and what is VAT, so companies can get the VAT refunded.

You have to be able to invest in stocks or funds outside US from a US trader? Even though I’ve sold most of my US assets, I still own some US stocks through my Scandinavian bank.

Or invest in non-US to keep them safe. Like Norwegian funds while the orange is oranging to gain on the oil price boom, and then spread out to European and emerging markets when he has his first public stroke in a few months.

We have those as well, but they are the parties to the right of the conservatives.
