But if you continue, you’re dead or get a bad health/psycho condition. I think that 1) people should not start what they cannot afford in some reasonable term (including cars, family, kids, etc; i.e. living on the edge), 2) societies should stop to welcome this life style on all levels. I have many examples around when people started their “life” thinking that it all will sort out later. It never did.

This all stems from the social hypocrisy about what you can or cannot do. We are living in cities, not in the woods, and sometimes we cannot use our basic rights without strings attached. Yes, start your family, rent a house, buy a car, go for it. And smile yes-sir to the smirking sociopath who wipes his dirt on you because you’re on his hook and there is no turning back. It’s like an enslaving conspiracy, but on a “nod to each other” level.

people will put their health in second place a lot of times if there are other problem

Only because there is no other way to live their life. They may not live it, or may live it like that. There is usually no third option for the masses, except for a few exceptions.

This is why we need UBI, so no person has to work a job they don't enjoy.
