Florida is now one of the most financially stressed states in the country, second only to another Southern state, according to a new report by WalletHub, which defines financial distress as having credit in forbearance or deferring payments due to financial difficulty.
“When you combine data about people delaying payments with other metrics like bankruptcy filings and credit score changes, it paints a good picture of the overall economic trends of a state,” WalletHub analyst Chip Lupo said about the findings.
Basically southern states expect your family to take care of you. Doesn’t matter how disabled you are, doesn’t matter if you are just going through a temporary tight pinch that will spiral out of control unless you just get a tiny bit of help to stay on your feet, you are the responsibility of your family and if they don’t want you you might as well drink yourself to death.
