      @coreytabaka @MaryZai Really important question! I don't know the answer. Best guess: Lack of understanding how debt works & not being able to plan ahead properly. Sure, you can't do much about a bad harvest, but more ofter hunger results from poor decision making.

    @coreytabaka @MaryZai E.g. from North Brazil interior: Students work their way through college selling honey/snacks door to door. A: Usually paid tuition late (with additional fees) instead of saving up first to pay ahead of time (with discount) B: Bought unnecessary books while living hand to mouth
