Surviving a layoff financially

The immediate financial playbook after losing a job, covering separation pay, SSS unemployment insurance, budget triage, and a structured timeline for job-hunting without going broke.

The first 72 hours aren't about job hunting yet, they're about capturing information and documents while they're fresh and easy to get, since some of them get harder to obtain once you've walked out the door for the last time.
