Mass layoffs are leaving workers frightened, frustrated, and questioning whether any job is truly secure. These clips feature a man terminated during a family vacation, workers laid off multiple times, someone unemployed for 16 months, and a mother losing her job after dedicating 13 years to the same company.
JJ examines the human consequences of corporate layoffs, the difficulty of finding replacement work, the potential effect of AI on employment, and the financial danger of losing an income while carrying a mortgage and other rising expenses. He also shares his own layoff experience and explains how an emergency fund, reduced debt, controlled spending, and a clear action plan can protect your family.
