While people like to dramatize their own Situation, wouldnt it be pretty easy to define it AS people who have as much spending as they have income without being able to save [amount].
If we want to exclude people who just dont save their money: people who have as much fixed spending as they have income
And the introduction is rather short. I will post it Here as well.
The observation that subjects with
specific phenotypic traits are
prone to the development of
particular organic or psychiatric disor-
ders is an old medical tenet. Nowadays,
these relationships tend to be explained
based on genotype-phenotype associa-
tions, which have been suggested for
over one hundred disorders, including
diabetes, obesity, Crohn's disease, and
hypertension (1, 2). Along this line,
some recent advances in endometriosis
research fit this view, as multiple
studies have contributed to the
definition of a general phenotype
associated with the disease (3–12).
Intriguingly, such an emerging
phenotype appears to be indirectly
linked with attractiveness, because
several of the physical characteristics
studied, including body size, body mass
index (BMI), and pigmentary traits
(4, 5, 7, 8, 11–13), have an impact on
perception of beauty (14, 15). A
biological gradient between the degree
of expression of these traits and the
degree of severity of endometriosis has
also emerged. As an example, with
regard to body size and figure, an
inverse relationship has been observed
between BMI and severity of the
disease in general (8), and in particular
in patients with deep endometriosis
(12). Despite this growing body of
evidence, studies formally investigating
attractiveness in women with endo-
metriosis are lacking.
To verify the potential relationship
between endometriosis and attrac-
tiveness, and to substantiate a pos-
sible biological gradient between
aggressiveness of the disease and de-
gree of attractiveness, we designed
a case-control study recruiting three groups of subjects, that
are, women with deep rectovaginal forms, women with peri-
toneal implants and/or ovarian cysts but without rectovaginal
lesions, and women without endometriosis. The degree of
physical attractiveness, the main study outcome, was assessed
by independent female and male observers. Secondary out-
comes were definition of selected morphological characteris-
tics and sexual habits. Information on pain at intercourse and
on sexual functioning in the three study groups is reported
elsewhere.
I dont See how this study aides the body of research but I am also not in that field.
[...]
Patient(s): Three hundred nulliparous women.
Intervention(s): Assessment of attractiveness by four independent female and male observers.
Main Outcome Measure(s): A graded attractiveness rating scale.
Result(s): A total of 31 of 100 women in the rectovaginal endometriosis group (cases) were judged as attractive or very attractive,
compared with 8 of 100 in the peritoneal and ovarian endometriosis group and 9 of 100 in the group of subjects without endometriosis.
A higher proportion of cases first had intercourse before age 18 (53%, 39%, and 30%, respectively). The mean SD body mass index
in women with rectovaginal endometriosis, in those with other disease forms, and in those without endometriosis was, respectively,
21.0 2.5, 21.3 3.3, and 22.1 3.6. The median (interquartile range) waist-to-hip ratio and breast-to-underbreast ratio were,
respectively, 0.75 (0.71–0.81), 0.76 (0.71–0.81), and 0.78 (0.73–0.83), and 1.15 (1.12–1.20), 1.14 (1.10–1.17), and 1.15 (1.11–1.18).
Conclusion(s): Women with rectovaginal endometriosis were judged to be more attractive than
those in the two control groups. Moreover, they had a leaner silhouette, larger breasts, and an
earlier coitarche. (Fertil Steril 2013;99:212–8. 2013 by American Society for Reproductive

I did but that turned out to be yet another stats course in R.
