[quote=Anonymous]Spouse laid off in Aug, 2025. Still looking. I am employed, but we cannot afford our current mortgage on one income, long term. With severance (now run out), plus stopping my 401k contributions, and now a tiny bit of unemployment, we are staying afloat. Can maybe go another year by living very tight and taking a little from retirement if needed. However, difficult decisions are going to need to be made if it drags on longer like downsizing... Which would include at least one kid changing schools. I hate Trump and his tariffs as, Jan BLS report aside (which will probably be revised down) he has single handedly killed jobs since becoming president. 2025 revised nonfarms annual figures are abysmal. Businesses cannot plan or figure out how to operate with so much turmoil. I keep following the ADP payroll reports as well and the economy is not doing well. I hope the Jan BLS.report today is a sign that things are getting better, but not optimistic that numbers are accurate. [/quote]
