All about fiscal space

Sir, – There are two unnamed compartments in my faux leather wallet, both with room for banknotes. The one at the front contains my limited disposable cash, the one behind my weekly Lotto ticket. It’s now named my fiscal space. – Yours, etc,

Sir, – We know that space is infinite. Attach the word fiscal and it becomes finite.

Could we please get back to phrases like budget, caution, planning, economic outlook, and, most of all, responsible spending? – Yours, etc,
