    I have 2 months of savings and I am trying to stretch them after being let go as a line cook. It has been a long 3 weeks. I listed every subscription and found several I forgot. What did you cut first?

    A simple budget with three columns, fixed, flexible and optional, made decisions faster.

    Thanks for writing this out. I went through something close to it last year, and it settled down once I kept a simple log of every call and form.
