I was able to live for 2.5 years without a job on less then $1000/mo. Assuming my houses stay rented, I could go 6 months right now. Used up a lot of my reserves on them.

If they all went unrented, I would last two months. I realize this is thin and it couldn't be much avoided. I'm working to build my comfort zone up again. I'd like to have 6 months reserve payment for each property.

I honestly don't know what I could do temporary to replace my income. I'm certainly not above working delivery, but my time money ratio would need to work out. For 6.50/hr, I'd be better off playing poker.

My biggest expense is my house. I have local family if need be. I could sell and move in with them short term. Even in this market, I could sell it in 3-6 months and do decently. That would hold me up for a bit. Food can be cut by around $200 a month plus another $200/mo in normal house expenses. I already live pretty frugally, so there is not much meat to cut beyond that.
