Strict budgeting. Calculate your required recurring expenses ( mortgage payments, car payments, insurance, groceries etc) and compare that amount to what you have saved up. That’ll give you an idea of how long you can keep going. Cut that by a couple months since it actual expenses will be higher.

Do Uber/ DoorDash any side gigs to try to cover credit cards etc get some spending money without it all coming from your savings.

The least thing I would do is go do delivery job or cleaner in the mean time you find better job and I have done in the past. Otherwise I would be in debt.

i have a lot of job referral rn but you have to meet up with the requirements and it pays from $45-$75/hr
send me a mail if interested kairholston01@gmail.com

Hey, new to investing looking at initial mistakes I made. I have $1k in VOO, $7k in VT and $4k in VTI in my brokerage acct; in my Roth IRA I have $6k in VT and $7.7k in VTI. I know isn’t an ideal portfolio because many of these funds overlap. However I’m in for the long term and am willing to reposition to a strategy that will do the best over my life. Id appreciate to hear feedback on these 2 accounts and better approaches from others. Thanks!
