Where do they get these stats from ?
Bullshit statistics.
10k were interviewed. They extrapolate 10k to the population of Europe. C'mon that's just mad. Especially with something as complicated as poverty.
Europe also currently has a war ongoing and has huge areas of incredibly poor and wealthy. Can't really average that out. Wouldn't trust anything that comes out of this research institution
10k is a great number for this kind of extrapolation. The only concern is how varied that population was
For this kinda thing ? Really ? 10k to extrapolate into the population of what 300 mil ?
Think that's pretty wild. For maybe a single question with a few variations but something as complicated and complex as poverty and spending habits.
Iyf like to see the sources to back up that claim.
Yup, check this parent comment for the source you're asking for
