		<description>You are right - in most cases, what is really needed is ways to protect against these shocks.

My point though was that often in discussions with mfis, I heard that reoccurring expenses that are consistent in their timing and amount (such as school fees) are often thought of as an emergency.  These are expenses that theoretically one should be able to plan and save for.  However, we see that this is not exactly the case.  It is very hard to delineate the exact impact of these shocks vs. lack of planning.</description>
