If you don't mind what may be a simple-minded question .. if you stop trying
to look for work, which implies that you won't be working ... where does the
food money come from?

And I don't mean 'you' Phil specifically and not meaning to give offense, I
mean 'you' in the generic sense.  If you get what I mean.
