5-7 months of living expenses left; terrified. Advice?
jhancock: 5-7 months savings is above average I would guess.
Here's what I recommend:1 - Get out of NYC fast!!  Find the cheapest place you find comfortable and your 5-7 months savings will get you 12+ months.  This does not need to be in the U.S.2 - So you like coding?  Ok, but what if for the next 5 years the world won't pay too well for coding?  Are you prepared to get into other things?3 - Don't Panic!  Seriously.  This is life, stuff happens.  Find other things that allow you to be happy.  Be positive and start living CHEAP!!!
