In 2008 my husband lost his job after being at the same small firm for 25+ years. We had 2 kids in college, 1 in high school, a lot of bills and a ton of debt. We were a 2 income family. Our income was cut in half that November day without warning, without a compensation package and without a paycheck for the previous 2 weeks already worked! Needless to say, but I am saying, our bills were not cut in half, my debt was not cut in half, my responsibilities toward my kids were not cut in half. In this small to the point book, I will share with you how we survived this job loss.
