When my second ex said she was leaving I said hell yes get out. It's been all financial recovery since that day. 👍

Have 3 months living expenses in a savings account.
(You people probably have a lot more bills than me I don't have any mortgage payment or car payment just insurance and taxes and utilities and meager living expenses)
Start a mutual fund and or index fund. (even if it's the minimum you can buy in at)
Buy and hold Precious metals Gold Silver Platinum even copper and nickel.
Don't use credit card unless you pay it all off as soon as you get the bill.
Disclaimer; I am not current on the way things are done now with cash app PayPal and all that.
I use cash and a credit card in an emergency I write checks and mail them to pay bills.

I avoid any monthly bills any charge for a money service.

Buy a house.
Disclaimer; recommendations may vary
people have different wants, priorities, needs.
So the neighborhood I was walking around in yesterday there's a bunch of brand new condos starting at almost 1 million up to two and a half million, but the people want to live there where everything's taken care of, but you could buy 20 acres and build a house somewhere else .for that kind of money.
You people probably don't have extra money to buy gold and stock market accounts because you have other things you need to pay for like
rent and gasoline etc.

Increasing my credit limit.

@Adroneandastrain you should only even have a credit card so that you'd be able to rent a car if you had to.
Disclaimer; this is all very old advice not current with the way things work today.

@Adroneandastrain you could also use the credit card if you needed to replace your hot water heater in an emergency.

Regularly saving/investing from each paycheck. Increased the amount with every pay raise. Mostly done with deferred income program that allowed the money to come out pre-tax.

@Selah Is there a cap on how many you can sue or can you just keep doing it over and over again?
Being smart with numbers is a fun hobby. 😌
