No, I've always been careful with my finances. I prioritize saving, ensuring that I can meet my basic needs even during periods of no income.

Have you failed to purchase a basic item because of brokenness?

Brokenness is man made just hustle daily no matter what to have money for things you need to buy
I experienced not having sufficient money when I lost my job in 2014. I pretty much relied on writing sites that time. I was blessed to have been found Bubblews and Humanatic that time and these site helped me pay my rent.

Same here, there are so many things I would really like to buy but buying them now would affect me a big deal, so I just chill.
There was a time in my life that I couldn't buy a single piece of cloth for myself for a whole year.
Due to the mishaps affecting the Social Security in my country, I'm fairly sure I and my husband never see a governmental pension, as the minimum age is likely to become 78 years old (considering the averagely lifespan of Latins is between 72 and 75 years old). Consequently, now I'm still far from the third age I must behave pretending I'm permanently broken. So I delay clinical exams, I postpone the purchase of prescribed drugs, I stop for a while to buy some food like onions, bananas and various fruits that become expensive cause inflation. My couple also gets rid of some house and appliances repairing. The aim is to spend as less as possible to not find my couple penniless during the time we should receive the governmental pension that we won't see.
This is why we don't have to stay a day without working towards making money so that you can live above brokenness
That's true. People need to always strive to make good money frequently so that they don't get broke. It is devastating to get broke.
Brokenness is a bad situation for anyone especially as you would go hungry and become a steady angry person
Well, especially when I was younger, I kept working even when I got sick and so did many colleagues of mine, to avoid a single rest day (especially out of Sundays or Saturdays). But as the age increases, working while sick is not that big deal. It becomes more and more difficult also.
Well, this is why we still always have to take some rest.i do rest when I should because we really need it even as we work hard

Thankfully, this has not happened to me, I am able to afford all basic necessities from the money I make
Yes if you make money daily you would be able to have money that can afford you the basic things of life
I remember having known a middle-aged woman, as attending the blog of an Italian coach spreading about the extreme downshifting lifestyle. She went hungry on a daily basis, as she only could count on a pension of 250 euros. Surely, she is the widowed of a craftsman (craftsmen in Italy only receive a starvation pension) and in addition, she had an unemployed daughter (living together with her mother) to sustain. After having paid the taxes, the bills and the condominium's fees, she only could afford a plate of plain rice for dinner and a couple of rusks for breakfast. She always skipped lunch, to not let her daughter to starve (she couldn't afford lunch for both of them). But may you imagine she considers herself lucky? Yes, lucky! She didn't develop an edgy temperament. She compared her situation with homeless, forced to sleep in the street, so exposed to criminal acts. Or people forced to pay a rent (In Italy, the average minimum rent for a shabby bedsit became 600 euros per month): impossible to pay a rent, if you only earn 250 euros per month. Impossible to survive, especially in an European country, especially if you don't own your apartment. You can get an eviction order to turn homeless (it happened to an acquaintance of mine). As that woman owns her apartment, she stated she is lucky, despite the concrete risk to fall severely sick (and even considering the impossibility, in such a case, to afford to pay doctors and drugs) cause the impossibility to afford a decent meal. In my opinion, a very disciplined woman, that didn't become a steady angry person even in such a circumstance.
Yeah they are people that can fight hunger and remsin stable but some people can't. But in all we need to work hard.
I think that woman is really a role model, a shining example. During my life, I came to know enough people complaining about their status (and imagine: being most of them middle-class), or wistfully looking at their neighbours who owned more than they were owning. Not a big deal for both the complainer and the listeners...
