Well to be honest, I wasn’t really hurting which was why I didn’t take unemployment money (plus I wasn’t really looking for a job which is a condition to receive unemployment since I was trying to get a couple of startups going). I did okay in in my previous startup and had a good bit saved away... plus my wife has a good job ;-).
But it still confuses me as to how they ultimately come up with their numbers and further where someone like me would fall in their counting over the last 18 months?
