    I have 7 months of savings and I am trying to stretch them after being let go as an operations analyst. Thank you in advance. Rent and the car are the biggest costs. What did you cut first?

    Ask your utility about hardship programmes. Mine knocked a bit off my bill for several months.

    I called the landlord and the card company early. Both offered a short payment plan, which I did not expect.
