brought to you by the every dollar app start budgeting for free today so about two weeks ago

my husband lost his job oh that's so scary communication issue which is um employer who's also the

owner of the company it's a very small company and he's been working with him for over 15 years.

And he got fired over text.

Wow.

I make decent money, but we don't have any savings.

I have a 401K.

But our expenses alone are about $5,000 a month, and it's just not enough to cover all

of our expenses with just my salary.

And I'm looking at getting a home equity loan, not a line of credit, but a loan to hold us over and consolidate some debt until he can find some other employment.

How much debt do you guys have?

It's not going to be anymore, of course.

I have about 20,000 in credit cards.

There's two car loans. One is about 18,000, and the other one's almost

paid off, so there's maybe $1,000 left on that vehicle. Okay, any other debt?

Three 401K loans that come out of directly out of my paycheck, and that's about $400 a month,

and that's about $26,000.

Okay.

So this problem started long ago.

Even with two incomes, you guys have been unable to keep up your lifestyle.

Yes.

So what's been going on beneath the surface?
