PS: I would like to further explain the no 1 cause of debt, Reduced Income/Same Expenses. The first time I read the title, I was confused. After further reading, I know that it is a ratio between income and expenses. Sometimes, If our luck is really bad, our income is reduced for quite sometimes, However at that time, if we don’t maintain the ration by reducing the expenses, we will get into debt because you don’t have such amount of money to support your expenses.
