I saved several months' worth of expenses. I paid off debt in 2004, because there was a huge housing bubble that HAD to burst--it was only a question of when. I saved the maximum vacation time my company would allow, not to mention I saved the money I would have spent on transportation, accommodation, food, and shopping. I didn't think I'd lose my job, but my preparation at least kept me solid for 6 months, with zero income or unemployment comp. <br /><br />In this age and this economy, 6 months is no longer enough time to get re-employed. Who knew? <br /><br />One scripture I cling to is this: "I have never seen the godly abandoned or their children begging for bread." Psalm 37:25. God does provide for the helpless (in surprising ways) when society does not.Christy K Robinsonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05988458745832012138noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1510856114964257942.post-24346463047106764162010-08-02T19:06:08.623-07:002010-08-02T19:06:08.623-07:00A great posting again, Christy!

I lost my job in April 09 when I thought the job market would pick back up in the following months. This is where faith comes in. :)Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
