I have 14 months of savings and I am trying to stretch them after being let go as a data-entry clerk. I am in Jacksonville, in case local advice matters. Rent and the car are the biggest costs. What did you cut first?

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

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