Kathy K

Kathy K is a 28-year-old public servant in Guyana who, despite holding a Master’s degree, faces significant financial challenges in her pursuit of home ownership. Working full-time, she also operates a small shop to supplement her income, but with high living costs and limited savings, she struggles to prepare her government-allocated house lot for construction. Kathy's situation reflects the broader economic difficulties faced by many young adults in Guyana, where rising housing costs and stagnant wages have made financial independence increasingly elusive.
