"69% of people said it would be very damaging financially - for them or their household - if they were to lose their job. "

Really?

So the other 31% wouldnt be financially damaged if they lost their job?
How odd.

Perhaps they have awesome redundancy packages?

Perhaps they're just idiots

The question says "very damaging"
that's different to "damaging" or a bit of a pain,
if you're not the main household income, or you live with your parents or something.
