Bradley Swain of the Common Cents Lab at Duke University used a similar opening line in his excellent and prophetic article in the summer of 2018 speaking to this fact. Since then, the global pandemic has only added greater stress for millions of low to middle-income Americans, especially hourly wage earners and “gig-workers” struggling with income volatility, low savings rates, and high personal debt.
