> "why don't you just move" Fair, question. 1) Just moving your stuff costs a lot of money but with some savings it can be accomplished. You end up spending half the value of the sofa to move it. Then you need curtains, wall paper, paint and carpet. That money just doesn't exist. 2) The comfort of their own home is much more important if you lack a sense of financial security. Trying to recreate this isn't guaranteed to work. 3) Poor people to a much greater extend depend on friends and relatives nearby as do they depend on you. Rebuilding the network takes decades if it happens at all. They are not just there to save you when things turn sour but they are the main activity. You don't go to the movies, a bar, a restaurant, London, Disney world or to Ibizza, you go visit a friend.
