How do people who live paycheck to paycheck not go crazy knowing one sickness, one accident can put them in a financial hole they'll never recover from?

Living paycheck to paycheck just means you don't have any money in your bank account.
Most still have a lot of investments they could liquidate in an emergency.

in a way, they do. they forgo all hopes of self-accomplishment and dedicate themselves to doing whatever it takes to not become homeless and destitute, which somehow invariably means giving up a lot of their freedom and doing what they're told.

Paycheck-to-paycheckcels either fit into this category >>57789670 or are too dumb to even think to plan ahead.

No way m8. They have a car, which they need to work. They might have a house, which they need to live in. You don't say you're living p2p when you have a 100k stock portfolio. The definition of it is that you make what you spend with no buffer.

Just use your credit card and tell them you can't pay about six months later.
