[quote=Anonymous]I can probably do this for a year +. My spouse is employed (non Fed), we have good savings, and we’ve survived a long unemployment during covid on just my salary and the nominal VA unemployment benefits that only lasted for 6 months while the unemployment period exceeded that time. We just cut back on pretty much everything and ended up only using a few thousand from savings. And my spouse’s income now is greater than my salary plus the unemployment at that time, so while it’s an extremely austere life style and we would need to pause things like 529 contributions, we can do it. I haven’t done that yet, but will do so before December’s scheduled contributions if this is still ongoing. Like others, I still believe my work is important and I have to hold onto the hope that this assault on the federal workforce will end, even if that’s not until 2029. [/quote]
