Silly thing I got stuck in my head regarding your latest AMAZING fic. How are cylynn at managing finances? I remember Lynn saying they had more than enough savings to live off on and it got me curious esp since they live thru the 2008 recession. Were they at any point struggling or having to pinch pennies? Utterly adore how huma and genuine they both are

Outside of Cy's love for spoiling Lynn and his gfs on occasions, they're actually quite frugal and don't do anything risky with money.
As for the 2008 recession, I'm glad you brought it up because that means I get to lore dump a little about Cy's mom: Mandy's a financial analyst! And a quite astute one at that, so Cy and Lynn came out of that crisis unscathed, mostly through putting most of their savings into Treasury Bonds and smart placements, and Lynn insisting they pick a Credit Union back when they got married and opened a joint account. Mandy herself got off with utterly indecent bonuses while the people working on the other side of her street got laid off.
