3. Family, yes.
With friends, there are some who might offer assistance for a limited amount of time. They might be likely to use their connections to help me find a job or other assistance, too.

But my immediate family would help each other with no limits. Some of my extended family might do that, too.

Right now, I have someone who has come to my house to do some repair jobs for me. He lost his job and has only part-time work. I have given him and his fiance food out of my cupboards, too. There is another person whose prescriptions I have paid for when I happened to be at the pharmacy. I didn't do this because I am rich. I'm not. Some of the people I have helped in quiet ways might remember me if the tables were turned. I hope so.
