- Well... today sucked.
FYI: This had nothing to do with me as an employee. This was strictly a business decision made by the company to downsize.

Even you are financially prepared, this is a huge psychological shock. I am sorry.
Thanks Mila.
You'll do great man. I was laid off last year. It is not fun at all. I was able to find a job that paid me more a week after being laid off. It may not look like it now, but sometimes these things are a blessing in disguise.
Appreciate it Heat Gat!
You’re a smart guy. I have no doubt that you’ll figure something out. You’ve got this
Thanks Sam!
One expression I always like to live by in times of hardship is: “One door closing is always another door opening”. You and your channel are part of what made me join this FIRE movement to try to retire early and accumulate wealth. There’s not a doubt in my mind that you can get through all of this 🙏🏾
Wow MJ means a lot my friend! Thank you
JJ Buckner I was going to say the same thing. I know it’s a cliche but I truly believe when one door closes another one opens
Totally agree!!!
See the bright side of the whole story:
Now you go UA-cam full time and make the double salary your ex president in a year!
hahaha freaking #goals!
Hi jj. My husband got laid off at 59 years old. Said it was they were getting rid of his position. Mind you this is labor work. But in the long run it was the best thing that ever happened. I was still employed so that helped. About 2 months after that we found out they didn't get rid of his position.
JJ Buckner no, DESTINATION!
Sherry Poole it’s destination
That’s a goal to have! Haha
When one door closes another one opens.
This is just the beginning of something better man.
Thanks brother!
Well said
I remember when I got laid off years ago...it pushed me into entrepreneurship...haven’t looked back since💯
I respect you from being bold enough to share your life and your struggles you're not the only one going through this situation I hope every go will on your Journey too success
Justin, that means a lot man. Thank you!
Yes that requires bravery. Thank you for allowing us to learn from your experiences.
You got this JJ
Blessings come in disguise
Thanks brother!
Amen

#nevergiveup
just a big bump on the road JJ, you will get through it all your pieces are in place you got this brotha man!!!!!!!
I missed this one- just popped into the feed! I think everything is working for you man!!! Keep grinding!
Good to see you’re all setup man; great example of being ready for anything. All the best
Thank you for being so honest with your audience, I certainly follow everything you teach and am fully prepared in case something like this happens to
Me, thanxs again and hope you find a replacement fast, they lost a good employee.
Thank you Christian!
Thank you for making this video... I too recently had to go through this same situation. It’s really hard to be let go for economical reasons, especially when you’re a dedicated employee. You are one of my favorite channels to follow and I will be sure to support you and your family by watching (and liking) every video you put out regardless of the content. It’s not much but it’s the least I can do to say thank you for all the info you have been sharing with us! Keep that chin up cause it only gets better from here!😁
Wow means so much to me Benjamin! Thanks so much for the support man. Seriously. Means a lot
I’m sorry to hear this. I’ve been there and the sun always rises tomorrow. You’re going to have an even stronger channel and make so much money, you’ll hire people. God bless.
JJ, my husband and I went through a rough time when he lost his job in 2010. I went into survival/crisis mode. LUCKILY, we live way below our means, have a VERY low mortgage, have an emergency account and we’re able to make some additional cutbacks. My husband was so bummed out and felt like he let me down. It was actually a blessing in disguise, he was working a TON of hours and it was killing him. Now that it is 2019, it seems like such a minor blip. We now are making more with our jobs and still living with a low budget. We travel and donate like crazy. We love our life and are grateful the only debt that we have ever had is our mortgage. YOU are such a smart, practical and extremely motivated man. I wish you much success! ❌⭕️❌⭕️ Penni
So you know exactly how I am feeling right now. Love the outcome!
Thanks so much for sharing this life change with us. This was definitely an eye opener for others! Best of luck to you and your family working through this minor setback in your lives. In lighter news, u got a new subscriber here! ❤️
Keep your head up brother! I’ll be praying for you. Who knows it may be a blessing in disguise. I respect your hustle. Just know your UA-cam community has your back!
You can do it! Stay positive and keep pushing forward
Great transparency man. I feel for you. This would be shocking for us. This should inspire others to get their affairs in order as soon as possible. Your a smart man and you will be fine. This will likely be an interesting opportunity for your family.
Subscribed and watching all of the ads. Keep sharing.
Sorry to hear that. I know You'll bounce back and find something better. In the meantime I will watch all ads through the end. It's the least that I can do Good luck.
Glad to see the outcome of what happened. Much love JJ, you're better off now and you enjoy what you're doing now. Happy holidays!!
Your video today is a reminder to all, that being prepared for such a emergency is so important. Thank you! I'm praying you will find another opportunity quickly.
I’m sorry to hear what happened to you at work. I hope better opportunities come your way in the near future. Stay strong!
Sorry about your rough day-trust that everything will be fine, and then it will be fine-good luck!
You can definitely get through this, and seeing more of you guys is just fine!
Sorry to hear about this. Wishing you the best of luck in finding a new job!
You've got our support, for what it's worth. I know how difficult news like this can be. But I have this feeling that losing your job, though it's a hardship, at least temporarily, it may be the very thing that opens you up for that something else that may be waiting- something that may have needed you to be available. You have prepared for this. It doesn't take away from how much this sucks right now. But it is the pin light that shines through that dark moment. And it's real...just as real as the emotions you are experiencing right now. Prayers and Peace for you and your family moving forward.
I am really sorry. You have your financial life together; you are intelligent and motivated, so you will weather this. Thank you for sharing this and for using this setback to teach us another valuable lesson. It pays to be prepared for the worst. I wish your family all the best!
Sorry to hear the news but nice job being prepared. It happened to my dad a few times and it sucks. Keep Hammering!
This is just a detour to a greater destination. You have done you due planning as the man of the house. A greater blessing is coming your way. Stay blessed and Motivated
Stay Inspired JJ, really like your positive due to the bad news. Wish you and the family nothing but the best man!
Hey my friend- the SAME THING HAPPENED TO ME on the same day. I'm reeling too but I pray that it i just a shove towards what we are needing to do with our lives. Wishing us both a better horizon.
Thanks for being real, and sharing this.
Prayers up for you and your family JJ.
Keep pushing my guy 💪🏾watched all the ads
I’m so sorry JJ!!! Cruddy day for sure. I know you’ve set yourself up for success. And you’re next endeavor will be even more amazing!
Love your spirit bro!
Sorry to hear about this JJ. All things will work out! 👍
Thanks Tom!
Everything happens for a reason.
This might just be the start to something MUCH better! You'll be fine.
Investing Engineered exactly right!
Love your channel.
Sorry to hear about this man. At least you're prepared for events like this. I know you'll figure everything out!
thanks for this important message. good luck on the health insurance and job search. y'all got this!
Thank you for the kind words!
Damn man, good that you are keeping your head up. Never give up!
Sorry to hear this JJ. Keep your head up (we all know you will), and keep doing what you are doing. You are such an inspiration to all who follow you and this is just another interesting part of your story and we all know you're going to crush it! Much love!
Thank you so much! Really means a lot!
I love you & I’m so proud of you for getting us in the financial spot you have to make this obstacle a little less challenging. Can’t wait to see what doors open next for you & praying that God helps guide us there smoothly 🙏🏼
Remember "Footprints In The Sand". HE's always there.
Wow, thank you for sharing your story. Truly inspiring
Sorry to hear that! This is the first video of yours I have watched. You sound very strong and positive even in this tough time. I pray for a positive mindset like yours. I have no doubt you will be ok. Take care and God bless you.
This really hits home man and I had a panic attack a year ago and decided to get my finances in order to protect against this very thing. Since then, I've paid down all credit cards, paid off a car, built a healthy savings, and got investments going very strong. Working on paying off the house quickly now too. I guess what I'm trying to say is that people think this personal finance stuff is BS, but in actuality it protects you and acts as insulation from what life can throw at you. This situation that happened to you is a great example of that. Keep doing what you're doing and spreading the good word. Try to find other work, but also scale up your UA-cam...people make a killing on here. Keep fightin man.
Your preparation for the worse will definitely pays off. And, thanks for sharing your story, hopefully all the viewer will 'do something' for themselves.
I got this video recommended. Don't know why. But it relevant to me as I also being laid of before. Thank God I prepare.
Sorry to hear JJ, puts things in perspective for the rest of us to get things straight because you just never know whats around the corner. Good luck, enjoy your videos!
Wow man I really feel for you! I have been there done that didn't get a T-shirt for it! You WILL bounce back. I did! Good luck and prayers for a speedy recovery!
So sorry to hear this. Hope you received a severance package.
Glad that you are debt free.
Praying for Gods guidance in what comes next.
You can also video your journey
Thanks Elizabeth!
Hey JJ, watched one of your videos in the past but was just another viewer passing by. This one just fell into my feed and now i'm a subscriber. Keep up the good work and keep us updated! Best of luck ma man!
thanks for the transparency I am self employed so I can't technically be fired but you definitely hit unexpected rough patches and I'm glad you decided to document this so you can look back on it in the future
Yeah man, I feel ya. This just happened to me on Monday, except it was in the afternoon as I was leaving. My boss pulled me aside and told me that it was going to be my last day. That has never happened to me before. She said she likes me but she can't keep me. To be honest the why is still a bit fuzzy. Luckily I'm finishing school at the end of the month and am interviewing for a new job. Having the rug pulled from underneath you like that, it's hard. I will do everything that I can do to avoid having that feeling again. You are very smart and good luck on your job search. P.S. I just subscribed.
You are better prepared than Most...far better...what a relief that you have done all this work...both of you...so that this isn’t a disaster to your family!
So true! Having a financial plan is a must. Prepare for the worst and hope for the best. We are only as useful as our knowledge. Continue to grow your skills. This will open new doors in your future and will lead to more growth. Keep up the great work with your content!
Wish u the best of luck with your future endeavors man! Hope a great opportunity pops up for you. Thank you for the content👍🏼
Yes. It happens! Thank you for the inspiration! Luckily I've never had to go through this but I genuinely think about it all the time. Luckily got to a three month emergency fund recently but still there is progress to be made. Thank you for being honest and open and making this video! 🙏🙏
Wow...I am sorry to hear this... This is quite an eye opener. I am glad that you are prepared and I am going to work to be like you. God bless you and take care of yourself. You are a very smart man and your family is lucky!! You know what to do and I wish you the best!
Been there, man. You got this! No diamonds without pressure
You will be fine. I have been laid off twice in the past 2 years. I didn’t have my finances in order whatsoever but you’re channel is super inspiring.
Thanks Kalyn!
Sorry to hear this man. Been there before. But a better opportunity will present itself.
Sorry to hear, JJ. New door opening for you today! Good work with the finances, great lesson.
Thanks brother!
Hope something better comes to you man !
I'm sure it will all work out with your work ethic! Good luck to you, and I'll keep watching :)
Thanks Emily!
Prayers going up! You got this brother! New subscriber
Thank you! 🙌
Hey man I HONESTLY believe you will be way better off this time next year. You are prepared and know what you are doing with money. Good luck with everything in the near future JJ
Just come across your channel as I fear being fired right now. The way you handled this happening to you is remarkable. You’re a great guy with a terrific disposition, and handled this so positively and maturely. I hope your situation has improved. #subscribed
You are an outstanding young man, a great teacher and someone whom alot of people look up to. Success will follow you no matter what challenges you face! Good luck to you and your family.
Amen. That exact same thing happened to me years ago. I was completely blindsided. There were rumors of layoffs in other depts but not in mine. I vowed that I would never let myself be put in that position ever again. To be dependent on a company or the government for my income. To be at their mercy. Fast forward 10 years, I got fed up with my 9-5 and was able to walk away from it because I had paid off all my debt and had an emergency fund. Greatest feeling in the world!
Thanx for sharing, God Bless!
Sorry to hear that man. Feel as if the company I'm in is headed that way too. All the signs are there.
Preparation is key
Must have been hard to share this, all the best for moving forward. 🤞
Situations such as this only make you stronger. You’ve set yourself up for success, you’re a boss!!!
JJ, I am so sorry. This happened to me 3 times, but I always bounced back. Let yourself go through the grieving process, then pick yourself up then find your new opportunity. You got this!
JJ - I really like your videos and have been watching for a long time. By far, this one resonated most of all. I wish you the best and am looking forward to how you turn everything around. It will be a great inspiration and example to those who follow you. Continue to share your story...I’d bet my money on you.
This is a test that you will pass my brother. Your well prepared!!💪🏾👨🏾🏭
Thanks Joey! Means a lot my friend.
@@jjbuckner Welcome
Thank you for the advice and I'm sure you'll get that new career very soon. You and you wife are smart with well plans ahead. God bless you and your family.
Thank you so much Tina!
You have your trading so just focus on that and beer bro! You got this! Keep up the good work and keep posting consistently and you will succeed. In my mind you already have bro!
Dude I learned a lot from your videos and I like how you keep everything real and not staged! Good things are coming for you!
Thanks David! Means a lot.
Thinking of you! So glad you are prepared. I am hoping this will turn into a good change for your family.
Thank you!
Sending good vibes, for you and your family.
👊
I watched the entire ads haha. I wish you the best JJ. I’m an OG subscriber so I’m looking forward to more videos. Remember I think I’ve been here since literally 500-600 subscribers.
A true OG! Thanks brother!
Hang in there bro, without challenges you can not get stronger
Thanks for the reminder to stay prepared and live below your means. You will find another job.
