Stay in touch with the people you know on the line, we have a website that 7 years later is still helping people find jobs.
Getting furloughed ended up with my finally achieving the dream of becoming a military pilot, so recognize that it might be an opportunity, too.
Ain't that the truth. In the financial world we call that the "homelessness ratio". Basically the ratio of your savings to your monthly expenses. Thats how long you could live with no income before you would be in some deep kimchi.
