My wife has not worked since this started. In Canada at least we have the CERB for now ($2000 a month) but that ends end of August unless they extend it.
So at that point she will be quitting/fired/working only weekends? And we will be living off my income alone.
I am a lucky one where I have not lost my job and had my full normal salary all pandemic. I am also very safe with my money so we can afford to live off the one income for a long while. It won't be fancy and we are gonna have to give up a lot of stuff, but safety/health > money.

Yeah my wife and I have been lucky to have two workplaces that are actually thriving during covid. I'm quite grateful.
Edit: dunno why it quoted three times but whatever.
