They had profitable employment on which they believed they could rely for a permanent Income. That has gone, and they aro unable to secure work. J)They had a house which ultimately they expected would be their own and would make a home for themselves and their family. They have been unable to meet tha payments due on It and have seen It taken from them. Others hero found that Investments on which they relied for provision for their old age hart turned out to be of much lees value than had been supposed.
