Swedish term

mycket mindre kredit

Swedish to English Social Sciences Psychology
Hello

For many reasons, a person has 'awakened' and changed their lifestyle.

They then say

"På det hela taget kan jag sammanfatta det hela som lärorikt, komplext och ***mycket mindre kredit***.

I simply don't get the last bit.

They may have lost income by working for a smaller firm due to their convictions so could it be something like

'but barely pays the rent'???

Or does it mean sth else?

Thanks in advance as always for any help

Votes to reclassify question as PRO/non-PRO:

Non-PRO (2): Michele Fauble, Christopher Schröder

When entering new questions, KudoZ askers are given an opportunity* to classify the difficulty of their questions as 'easy' or 'pro'. If you feel a question marked 'easy' should actually be marked 'pro', and if you have earned more than 20 KudoZ points, you can click the "Vote PRO" button to recommend that change.

How to tell the difference between "easy" and "pro" questions:

An easy question is one that any bilingual person would be able to answer correctly. (Or in the case of monolingual questions, an easy question is one that any native speaker of the language would be able to answer correctly.)

A pro question is anything else... in other words, any question that requires knowledge or skills that are specialized (even slightly).

Another way to think of the difficulty levels is this: an easy question is one that deals with everyday conversation. A pro question is anything else.

When deciding between easy and pro, err on the side of pro. Most questions will be pro.

* Note: non-member askers are not given the option of entering 'pro' questions; the only way for their questions to be classified as 'pro' is for a ProZ.com member or members to re-classify it.

Agree with Norskpro Yes, far less on the credit cards etc.
Norskpro May 28, 2016:
I would guess that they are buying far less (mycket mindre) on credit.
