With so many of our friends and neighbors stuck without a job, we often forget that those people have financial obligations. Paying bills when you don’t have enough to cover the essentials involves making tough choices. No one wants to leave bills unpaid but sometimes you have to. A comprehensive list and order of items are listed below.
As your savings dwindle, you might have to make tough choices. Protecting your home, and health come before anything else. If you have to lose your car, then that day might come. But you can never stop looking for other economic sources of survival. You also can’t stop being economically fruitful. Some of the unemployed go back to school and find work on campus. Remember there are large classifications of student-only jobs at colleges and universities. In some climates, being creative may be required to find work. Also don’t forget that military enlistment is a valid option if you are below the age of 42. Enlistments have a bonus for those with college degrees. You can quality for warrant officer or officer candidate school immediately after finishing your military occupational training. So there are job options that you may not have explored.
This list is a list of last resort. Your highest priority should be to find a job as quickly as possible and never have to explore not paying bills. As person who has been reduced in force, I know these are tough choices, but make them with care.
