Only if I’m still employed and the checks I get still clear.
Moreover, we’re talking about a worst case scenario. There can be no overkill. I have to take every opportunity and exploit it to create greater opportunities until those I am responsible for are no longer in immediate danger (or at least the greatest risk to them again becomes old age, at which point my efforts no longer need to be split between the two problems).
So if I end up with surplus buying power, I should find something to invest in. I keep reminding myself that a recession can also be a great buying opportunity if you can manage it.
