Has illnesss adversely affected your income?

[neku]

If a person is seriously ill, they may be bed ridden for some time, due to which they are unable to work even at home for a week or more. This adversely affects the income of the person who has fallen sick. Has anyone found that their income has reduced greatly due to illness?

There was a time i was seriously sick which stopped me from working the way i would have, so yes being sick can affect how you earn.

Since online work is my only source of income, i cant afford to take a break no matter how sick i am. I remember the time i was extremely sick, i ddnt have any energy to work, i was soo weak, i worked same hours i do when i am not sick. I had a hard time trying to figure out how me and my child would make it if i ddnt work.

Illness can significantly impact income due to decreased work productivity, increased healthcare costs, and potential job loss. Long-term illnesses can force individuals to reduce work hours,

That's why we always tell people to take care of their health. When it is down, you won't be able to make money again.

When someone is sick, they can't go to their business places. Sickness really affects income of self employed people.

While some well-connected frauds are getting monthly salaries only for robbing data to make fake claims, the self employed online workers whose data the cheater employees are robbing are making very less money.

Yes, a serious illness can negatively impact your income. I experienced this when I was hospitalized because of my chronic condition.
