Improving skills, starting a new business, anything other than sit you backside blaming someone else.
By the way; how long can you stay afloat with unemployment compensation?
With economizing, as long as it lasts. With savings, you would still be able to live a non-monastic life -- without savings, you were a fool to not have prepared for such a possibilty. If you are so over-extended that you will go bankrupt and lose your house (which the original poster claimed was happening) if you are forced onto unemployment insurance for a few months, than you are in desparate need of a financial advisor.
