I keep hearing these stories of people making 100K + that are now out of work. They make it sound like they are living on the streets now. These people do save/invest money right? ---

All I would need is a 25k nest egg and i could make enough money to live on day trading in a robe, drinking during the daytime, and living like The Dude from big lebowski. ---

6 month nest egg… weak. I think I could already live at least 1 year with no income from now on, and that isn’t even getting desperate…selling my cars etc. If I made 100K I would never go back to making $10 an hour. Ever. Ok I lie. If taking naked pictures of girls paid $10 an hour I’d do it.
