Save some money in a very safe place. 将些钱存在十分安全的地方。

In a mad world, you never know when you'll need a little mad money. So make sure you've got some on hand. Having a stash of cash -- at least six months of living expenses -- can make you breathe easier in scary times and give you the confidence you need to make careful choices about your professional life. In other words, you won't have to jump at the first job offer you get if it doesn't seem like a good fit.

在一个疯狂的世界，你永远都不会知道什么时候突然急需用钱。所以你得存一笔钱。有一笔至少维持6个月生活的存款能让你摆脱恐惧，让你有足够多的信心去对职业生涯做出仔细选择。换句话说，你不必饥不择食地接受第一个出现却不适合的工作。

The stock market proved to be an unreliable piggy bank in 2008, with Kiplinger magazine calling it "the worst bear market since the 1930s." So, do yourself a favor and accrue the king of all liquid assets in a manner in which you know you'll have it when you need it.

在2008年，股市是一只不可靠的“存钱罐”，Kiplinger杂志称之为“自1930年来最糟糕的熊市”。所以，帮自己一个忙，管理流动资产时，你要确保要用的时候就能用。
