An office worker learns they will be furloughed without pay for one month, six months from now. They consider two potential strategies to manage this expected temporary drop in income:
- Strategy 1: Immediately start setting aside a portion of their current income each month to build up a fund to cover their expenses during the furlough. However, they find it difficult to reduce their current spending and end up saving nothing.
- Strategy 2: Apply for a small personal loan or a line
