[quote=Anonymous]So you put your plans temporarily on hold until your husband finds a new job. Once he finds a new job, you make plans around that income. It might mean moving farther out and downsizing to a smaller home so that you can afford to live on his smaller salary. And putting your kids in public school instead of private school. But if you leave your job, you can also downsize your budget because you won't need childcare, so your husband's salary needs to cover a home and bills. You can temporarily stop your college savings. When your kids get to upper elementary school and middle school, then you'll be able to go back to work, but you can go back to a scaled back job not a high powered job. And if you've decreased your budget to live on his salary, then your salary can go towards the college fund, emergency fund and extras, like a vacation fund. [/quote]
