The family lives in Latvia. S is a 51-year-old technician who lives with his 48-year-old wife, R, and their 3 children. Two of the children are adults--P is a 25-year-old nurse, and G is a 22-year-old salesman. The third child is 6-year-old O. The 4 adults work for 160 hours/week. The family lives in a three-bedroom house. It is a farmhouse with agricultural land and farm animals. They own the house and have been living here for the past 10 years. The house has uninterrupted electricity, indoor toilets, and running water. The family purchases 90% of their food supplies while the rest comes from their own farm production. Food supplies cost them 70% of their income. They use natural gas in the kitchen for cooking. The family last vacationed a year ago, for one week. They are saving money, and planning to buy a car and building construction materials. They hope that one day they will be able to fulfill their dream of building an animal barn.
