Evaluating the Feasible Frontier Model

An individual's consumption possibilities are often modeled using a straight-line feasible frontier, such as one connecting the point (0, 100) for 'consumption later' to (90, 0) for 'consumption now'. Critically evaluate the primary assumption that leads to this frontier being a straight line. Discuss at least two real-world financial conditions that might cause an individual's feasible frontier to be curved or kinked rather than straight, and explain the reasoning for the shape in each case.
