Another user commented, “I believe if he is not stuck in the EMI trap, he would already have good savings, emergency fund and investment plans. I don’t think he should be stressed considering the current situation. We are in a bad phase, but the industry is too big to fail, and if it collapses, the entire economy will also collapse.”
