This government shutdown is now the longest in history and seems like a “never-ending government” closure impacting hundreds of thousands of federal employees across the country and the DMV area. This kind of event is a great opportunity to remind us of the importance of emergency savings and preparing for the unexpected. We have a lot of content on MoneyNav that can help you make any necessary changes in your overall money life. If you’re a government employee or know one, we discuss a few things that can help minimize and reduce expenses while going through this difficult period. Feel free to reach out to us if we can help provide guidance on your specific situation.
