Braulio is of limited means. He’s married and has a son who he supports morally and economically. He needs the loan to repair his vehicle because it’s his main source of income. According to what Braulio said, he’s saving up to be able to build the house his father passed down to him as an inheritance and to do so it’s urgent that he repair his vehicle so he can continue working and saving for the construction of his house. Because of this, his wife also went into selling groceries to help with the household economy since that’s where she gets what she needs to cook their daily meals. That’s a help for Braulio and support for what he needs to continue forward and attain what he so desires in the short run. In this way, his wife and son will be more comfortable in a place of their own.
