Alfredo Miranda, a 31 year old male, talks about how his childhood was and his memories from before his adulthood.
His life was tough for him and wasn’t exactly the way he wanted it to be. He didn’t get everything he wanted but later in life he was capable of doing so as he made money.
He mentions during the interview how he had wished to have matured at a younger age, contrary to those who wish they were still child-like and hadn’t matured so early on in life. He wanted to be mature to have a head start, to be ahead in life.
