GPT-4o mini · Answer

The most accurate response is: **Very likely because he is running out of possible resources and cannot work at this time.** Jiro's situation indicates that his inability to work due to his injury and the need for surgery is leading him to deplete his savings, which puts him at a high risk of becoming poor.
