With all the news of very down quarters, diminished deal-flows, and possible layoffs around the corner -- does anyone already working know what we should expect?
For those of us joining as first-years next September... what are some ways to hedge ourselves if we get laid-off?

Just save up your money, don't engage in conspicuous consumption and all will be great.
Also, start thinking of ideas to start your own business
