Would your family be in a good situation financially if you suddenly had lost your job? Would you and your family be able to make it for 6 months, if you can't seem to find a job in that period of time?
My family with definitely not have anything to worry about should I lose my job tomorrow and not even be employed for the next five years. This is because we already have a family business which my brother and my father together with my mother already managing for themselves. It is an auto spare parts company that have been in the family for years.
