is this correct?
Yes, that answer is correct. Many rural Georgians during the Great Depression were self-reliant and did not heavily rely on cash for their livelihood. They often lived off the land, grew their own food, and had their own resources to sustain themselves, which shielded them from feeling the full impact of the economic crisis.
