That’s one reason I threw in “to the extent that you can control it” because sometimes bad shit just happens.
But for what it’s worth, between 2019 and now I’ve had three financial disasters and my financial picture is way worse than it was. Debt free with emergency savings, used that up on a mess with the house, then lost my job twice over the Covid years after having been at the same place 15 years. But I’m also on the other side of it all where I have a job I like and I can start to rebuild.
But I also have a family and a ton of animals, so I’ve been holding all of that close. I wish you well!
