Agreed. I didn't mean to be flippent about furlough. I realize it's a life changing event. My furlough was more of a life lesson than a life changing event. At the time I had nothing to lose. It taught me to prepare for the worst case scenario. I'm certainly not at the point where I could afford not to work but I'm also not in a position where I'd lose my house or cars either. My back up plan isn't flying.
