Something I started to do a couple years ago is prepay my mortgage and all my utilities several months in advance. Then, if a negative life event disrupts my income I don't find myself in panic mode. Yes, I know I could be earning interest in a savings account with those funds but with the terrible interest rates banks pay on savings I don't think I am missing out on much. The peace of mind is more important to me. Also, with the stability of our banking system becoming more questionable by the day I like knowing those organizations have my payments ahead in their bank account. I keep paper records of all my balances in case there is a hiccup with their computer systems and I need to prove what my balance was.

If I lost everything, the first thing I would do is sell anything of value. Getting a job relies on someone hiring you and you can't control that but you can sell clothing, jewelry, furniture, car, etc...everybody has stuff they can quickly sell online or a yard sale. When my business closed during the pandemic, I started reselling (at age 60) and only earned a few hundred dollars each month. Now 4 years later, it's my full-time business that allows me to set my own schedule, work from home and earn a six-figure income!

65 now. got out of college in the 80's and worked for 5 years in the corporate world.
yuck. i started cleaning houses and landscaping. over the years i worked 6 days a week and had
2-3 cleaning jobs a day and filled in with landspacaping. never ever work for one ''entity'' or person. i would lose or quit a job, just filled in any holes in my schedule with referrals. had a wife, a paid for house, and owe ''nothing to anyone''. simple life, simple needs. big lesons, diversify and prepare.

Her advice is good. But because we know she has money (and probably a lot of it), it doesn't always sink in fully. The first thing I thought when I saw the title was think 'she would probably ask some money for her dad'
Kinda horrible to think because it's not because he's a millionaire, that he would just had out money like that. (I hope he would of course because it's his daughter but you kinda never know.)
