    It happened over two days.

    Thursday 2 weeks ago I got laid off due to the economic environment.

    The stock market hit a new record high that day.

    The next day a grant I got one of my programs named in came through for 80k. Between that and my other program revenue, I’d have been fully paying for myself the next 2 years.
