🗣 Your account of the sudden spikes in prices and the loss of the ability to plan for the future — Monday, 16 Shahrivar:

🔹 Our income no longer even covers food, let alone the essential necessities of life.

🔹 For years now, we haven’t had any plan for the future—even for tomorrow—and we only struggle to survive.

🔹 I’m a teacher, and for years I haven’t been able to replace my phone. Even low-end models can’t be bought. With a 20-million-toman salary, my concern has become nothing more than providing food and drink.

🔹 We are kept alive by thin means, and we’ve become “living dead” for years. There is no goal or future; incomes are extremely meager and expenses are very high.

🔹 We are stuck dealing with everyday costs, and there’s no opportunity left for planning for the future.

🔹 We don’t have money to buy the items we need, and we can barely secure food either.

🔹 With a 20-million-toman salary and this dizzying inflation, there is no way to plan.

🔹 Nothing is left—no plan, no dreams; we only keep trying to survive.

🔹 Every time I manage to save some money, the price of goods rises so much that I can no longer afford to buy them.

🔹 With day-to-day increases in prices, I can no longer afford a dowry.
