It's official....

Very True... Even for those not living paycheck to paycheck are going to feel it for at least the next year... 95% of Americas, among others as well, are going to have a pinch one way or another...

At least the banks are starting to realize that it wasn't Completely the homeowners fault and are stopping a lot of the foreclosures out there... Redesigning the terms of the loans and changing the payment plans and whatnot... It's a small start in a big project ahead...

It's indeed a very frightening time for the employment sector. Even I am concerned about my part time job (call centre work) which is usually the first type of work to be sold off shore in an effort to save costs.

Just remember this, Admin:

Hang in there!

One door closes, another one opens. It's not always easy to find, but something good will inevitably come of this.

I got laid off a few years ago, too. The unique thing about that was that I had to fire myself. I had five guys working for me, but I didn't have enough contracts to keep everyone on the payroll, so I sacked myself in order to keep everyone else working.

However, I also took my sacking as an opportunity to work on other projects that I, otherwise, would never have had time for. I know, of course, that it always helps to have money, but time is also a very valuable resource. Use it to your advantage. Maybe there's an opportunity for you somewhere in there.

So DrPaul says, "Think positive and make your own luck."

Time is something alot of people never have enough of. Everyone wants more time.

Odd thing is, when we have alot of it.... we always waste it.

DON'T WASTE YOUR TIME!!

you won't know when you'll have alot of it again.
