____________________________________________________________________________



* What rates (figures)? Forget statistics (studies or research). Damn those graphs (charts) !

* All seven elements would be in at the time of experiencing discomfort (hardship situation).



1. Plan cannot be executed - not a budget or revival program. [Can't 'understand' it.]

2. Wage earned will be barely 'living, slightly above 'minimum'. [Won't have enough.]

3. Extra income source(s) not available to reduce the impact of rise in prices. [No hope for more.]

4. Cannot job-hop, if employed; or no palliative, if unemployed. [I want job satisfaction or improved employee engagement or pay rise or bonuses or ... .]

5. No job security, if working; no savings or talent, if unemployed. [I need to be working, active, etc.]

6. Relief not visible on the horizon (to emphasize, connect to #7). [I need a manna, some miracle!]

7. Situation is worrisome, leads to frustration, desperation, etc. [I must survive; hey, I shall live.]
