Welcome to the FIRE forum I also read your post about collecting unenjoyment- good luck, I believe most states pro-rate your severance- if you got 50K and were making 5K/month you would not be eliglible for 10 months- not sure how they are going to look at your situation- When a lot of people are making claims at once- i.e. a big corporate layoff, they tend to rubber stamp the applications quicker than when they have time to process them individually. Better not tell them you are FIREd.
Hope you enjoy the Forum, and don't take everything you read here seriously (Except the postings on bacon- bacon is serious business)
