I keep seeing these posts about going to restaurants and supporting local businesses. As much as I’d love to get take out, we’ve tightened our financial belts significantly.

Luckily I still work, and my wife has some work, and we have a 6 month emergency fund that we could possibly stretch to 8.

But his whole thing still freaks me out.

I understand the arguments for supporting local businesses, and maybe I should be, but I’m honesty planning for the worst. I think things will get a lot worse over the next 6-12 months before they get better.

I really hope I’m wrong.
