If you've managed your career, when you get a pink slip, you should be less than two months away from restoring or even enhancing your income.
If you're committed to startups, and your current startup craters, you could be 9-18 months from revenue.
It's just a fact: for any reasonable definition of "wealthy", more people reliably become wealthy by carefully saving and investing the income from a well-managed career than by any get-rich-quick scheme.
Don't do it for the money. You're not going to make any.

Agreed, but I would temper that with 'hope for the best, be prepared for the worst'.
