Tomorrow will be the first day since I was 15 that I haven’t been employed, and I turned 15 in the 1980’s. I’m married with 2 kids still at home. Husband is employed. We have a mortgage and I have 7 months left on my car at 1%. I have no credit debt, I have company stocks that are/were supposed to vest in July. I have a well-funded 401k. I’m getting 23 weeks of pay because I worked at this company for almost 20 years.
I want to maybe do some free lance computer work while I figure out what I want to be when I grow up. I am looking at that, but what should I do? I don’t want to end up broke and in debt in 22 weeks.
What about my stocks? I am a co-signer on one kid’s student loan (@$50k right now). Will this affect him? Do I need to change my taxes? Payoff my car? Should I be more worried and write my resume? What do I do? So far today, I made brownies, took a walk, transferred our health insurance to my husband being the payer and upped my life insurance on his account since I only had life insurance from work. What should the newly unemployed do?
