There's really nothing special about the current situation. Throughout history, jobs have been rarely anything close to guaranteed.

You save a good deal of cash for emergencies, live below your means, keep your skill set up to date and face the world.

The speed of change is what’s special this time. Careers are being eliminated faster than people can reskill or change careers.

I'm not sure that's true. Jobs have moved overseas at a rapid rate in the past. What careers have been eliminated, and over what time period?
