Has anyone been fired and then subsequently received unemployment? I was let go this week and am wondering if that is realistic to expect. Thanks!

Yes. Regardless, you should always file for unemployment. Let the unemployment compensation office and your ex-company sort it out. You never get anything you don’t ask for.

You should file, just be prepared to fight

Even if you were “fired” you can approach your ex-company about a severance pay-out. I did that once and it worked.

Who is still in denial about a housing correction? The Fed just made another .75% increase. Powell said they won’t stop until inflation is 2%. He also said a recession would be better than the consequences of unchecked inflation. He announced he will bring rates to a “restrictive level” until “the job is done”. He said that labor demand needs to soften (ie: layoffs). He very explicitly said he wants to slash demand and that housing needs a “correction”.
