The Covid-19 world has become scary.
People are worried about their jobs... many have been furloughed, or downright laid-off. Some have actually lost their jobs, as businesses fall by the wayside.
Many are talking about days, weeks, or longer of no income at all. So many have been living hand-to-mouth and the advent of weeks, or longer, of zero income is frightening. Good Morning America has actually aired a segment on how to go through your home to find items in your basement, attic and closet to put on Craig's List-style websites... to augment your income. The time, they are a'changin'.
Meanwhile, Realtors are thinking... "Weeks without income?? That's my jam." We Realtors understand, just as the Siberian Huskies, that the trees can be very far apart, and we need to be prepared for that. "A couple of weeks without income? A month, maybe more? Easy, peasy, lemon-squeezy!"
Now, that doesn't mean I'm suggesting that this isn't scary... it is. But everyone, in today's society, should have a buffer set aside, to allow them to survive for several months. And, yes, that includes toilet paper.
