We can hope that things will not touch us, but we need to be realistic. Job cuts are everywhere, houses are repossessed and the media is constantly creating a gloomy outlook. Everyone, especially families with children have to do everything in their power to protect themselves. There are unemployment covers, which are not much, but will help to keep your head under the roof, as it will pay your mortgage in the event of you losing your job.

But I'm doing what I can along with trying to persuade a spendthrift to cut back.

I think we'll be ok. We do own our own business so we're a little worried about how things will shape up with that next year. We have developed multiple income streams so if one dries up we have more coming in. I have been paying extra on my mortgage, I may cut back on that and throw the extra $600 a month in my emergency account, then when things start looking up I'll send it all in.
