I hope you never get into my situation, but I would without thinking change all my income streams in order to return at least what we had - say, nukes and other heavy equipment. And there are more than 50% of Ukrainians thinking the same after 2022
I can’t answer how would I feel if I would be in your situation without actually understanding what is war. Maybe I would take the same position as you. I also was pretty blind between 2013 and 2017 when war was 100km away from me but I didn’t feel it and believed it never touches me. Now I just view a lot of things differently and trying to share experience of my errors which could help others
P.S. I assume you not only want to avoid printing money in order to support Ukraine, you just want to distance out, because if money is a problem you could just sent troops in order to meet Budapest memorandum liabilities :) but money is the least of help
P.S.S. If GDP is not an indicator for you, take another example - while US sent millions of dollars in water and shovels in the first months Poland sent a couple of hundreds of tanks which in dollar equivalent are peanuts but in survivability terms are MUCH more valuable
