Making savings last after losing my job after 11 years as a teaching assistant

    My income dropped to unemployment benefits and my bills have not changed. Thank you in advance. I am nervous about the credit card minimums. 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.

    Subscriptions first, then the phone plan. I saved about $100 a year just by switching to a cheaper plan.
