Episode 135: Would You Survive a Financial Crisis? Here’s Your Fire Drill


Listen Later

What if your income dropped by 50%… tomorrow? What if the banks froze your credit lines and you had no access to cash? Could you survive the financial storm?

In this episode of Loans Elevated, we run a complete financial fire drill—inspired by our latest blog post—to help you simulate worst-case scenarios before they happen. We cover the 9 critical questions everyone should ask to protect their income, assets, family, and sanity.

1. What would we do if our income dropped by 50% tomorrow?

2. If the market crashed, what assets could we actually access quickly?

3. What is our monthly essential burn rate (food, housing, insurance, utilities)?

4. How long could we sustain our lifestyle with no new income?

5. What expenses could we cut immediately?

6. What are our backup plans for cash flow or credit, and how reliable are they?

7. Where are we assuming too much stability?

8. What would we do differently if we knew this scenario was 90 days away?

9. Are we emotionally prepared to lead through that kind of storm?
