Your prompt

Stress-test my finances against bad scenarios. My baseline:

Monthly take-home: $[X], monthly spending: $[X]
Emergency fund: $[X]
Debts: [list with minimums]
Investments: $[X] (allocation: [X]% stocks)

Run these three shocks and show the math for each:
1. I lose my job for 6 months (with [X] months severance / unemployment of $[X]/month).
2. My adjustable-rate debt / rent rises [X]%.
3. The market drops 30% and stays down 2 years.

For each: how long until I'm in trouble, what breaks first, and the one move I'd make today to survive it. Rank the shocks by danger to me.

Paste it into Muse or any assistant. Blank fields stay as [brackets].
