It affects a character's lives because it determines where they would live and how they will maintain themselves. If we take Rex as an example, if he had a decent amount of money then he would've had a better house to live in and his children wouldn't starve. They say money doesn't buy money but in this case it would bring joy to them and would save them from all the struggles like the debt they owe.

I share some experiences with the characters like going to the hospital but for something different like Jeannette did. My family is somewhat similar, we all have a great connection with each other and they want the best for us. They work a lot just to give us the lives we're living. I learned that its a tough world out there for people who are trying to get up on their feet and give their children the world but there are many challenges that come with that and I think with that, it will make them strong when they get back up.
