a buddys wife left after he lost his “big” job. But he never recovered, was always waiting for another “big” job. So he made no $$ waiting for his ship to come in.
You have to get up off your couch at some point instead of wallowing in your own crap. Get a job, man!

That is a big mistake men often make. They get to a certain salary level, lose their job, and then they sit around waiting for an equivalent job to come along. It is much better to put yourself right back in the workforce, even at a much lower paying job. If you were truly worth what the original job paid you, you will get promoted quickly where you are or you will be able to find that better job at leisure - with at least some money coming in.

Hell, I could get an entry level job at McDonalds tomorrow and in six months, I'll be running the place and on my way to Regional manager. That's how successful people have to think.
