If my income stopped and I assume I no longer had a job and could get rid of one or both of our car payments (since I no longer needed to drive to work) I would say 12 months.

Could you start selling drugs? Or does that constitute income?

Sorry Rolex I can't do this without a big spreadsheet and it would be too much work to figure out.

BUT...without liquidating anything, from pure savings right now I estimate we could get by for about a year.  I have a HUGE mortgage.  :)

forever... I would simply retire early.  I would probly not stay in my current home tho simply because there would be not point.  I could sell it and live better elsewhere.

Now... before I reached this happy age... I rarely had more than one or two months worth of income to live on at the rate I was spending..   It was never a problem... something allways came up.  Allways worked out.

It does giove peace of mind tho knowing that the job or losing it is not a big deal at this point in my life.
