Making savings last after losing my job - 21 weeks in

I have 10 months of savings and I am trying to stretch them after being let go as an office manager. Rent and the car are the biggest costs. Did any lender work with you?

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.
