[quote=Anonymous]Yes, in 2009, I was unemployed for 6 months. I had estimated that we had about 6 months of EF. However, when I was out of work, I adjusted the shopping and cooking, we ate out less, I cut costs on housekeeping (we stopped the monthly house cleaning and I cleaned) and made other household adjustments. During that 6 months, we used up about 2.5 months worth of our pre-layoff monthly budget before I found a replacement job. I really don't want to be a SAHD or house-husband, but I made it work cost effectively.[/quote]
