First of all this place is NOT loathsome. It is the busiest place on earth. With the largest construction project in the history of people ever.
OK, just leave my hot springs just like it is, please.
My neighbor has a degree in economics. We have discussed these topics until I am sick about our economy. His latest word is to spend your money only on things you need to survive. He says we are now in a recession , heading toward a depression. "Get ready for it NOW" is his advice.
GWB has _ucked up our money sooo bad it will take more than 8 years to fix and only if the right moves are made quickly. If not our grand children will suffer from his mess.
My neighbor has gone from selling construction loans for big firms to selling time shares at these same resorts that he secured the loans for ! ?
I hope my neighbors advise helps to register our new reality-based attitude adjustment.
While visiting Florida I looked in the classifieds to check out the job market. There is none ! There was one job for a construction supervisor, another one for a certified air condition mechanic, and another one for a nurse for the other two. Ronny Regan used to say the economy was doing good cause the help wanted part of the paper was full of jobs. Well,wake up to a new reality.
All three of my sons said they were glad they all have good jobs because the job market sucks all over down there. Which makes it hard to climb the ladder to the school of HARD KNOCKS. Which is where we are all heading too. Because your money will be useless. That is what happened in the last DEPRESSION.
So let's all stock up on our seeds and shovels cause we will need them sooner not later.
U no I am glad to help ;~)
