huge spike in the unemployment rate coming in October

well, not necessarily the national unemployment rate. it’s more of a local thing. Northern Nevada. well, not all of Northern Nevada -specifically my house. The unemployment rate in my house is going up to 100% at the end of October.

they finally hired a new CFO to replace me , who started yesterday. I’m hanging around for one month on a consulting contract to help him with a few projects we are in the middle of. The press release went out this morning, which is why I’m guessing why the stock market is down so much..

Anyway, so I’m back on unemployment by the end of this month.

I probably need to stock up on some cheap cat food for inexpensive dinners going forward…

starting to think about some combination of an onlyfans page and a series of gofundme’s to supplement my retirement income.

[pedant hat on] You're not officially unemployed unless you are out of work but looking for work.[pedant hat off].

Congrats on the life shift!

what, are you new to the 2020s? you are referring to something called a “fact”. “Facts” are not relevant in current discourse.

Don’t forget Cameo for your supplemental income. You make videos for $$$ (or maybe really $) as a hired gun.

Don’t laugh, Mr. AM has hired “celebs” to make marketing pitches for him. It could be YOU!

Hmmmmm this is a good thought.

“Does your loved one have a birthday or special occasion coming up? Are they huge fans of elderly paunchy retired accountants? Buy your cameo from Doug now!”

I hope this doesn’t put me into another tax bracket.

I think I’m still too young for a career in politics. I will be in the sweet spot for running for president in about eight or nine years though.

I was planning to stand out at the end of a freeway offramp with a cardboard sign that says "NFFMCo Retiree -- Anything Helps!" But all the good spots are already taken by others with the same sign.
