RE: money-money-money
I work for the local county government and things are really bad. We are downsizing by approximately 30%-35% so that means people have already begun to loose their jobs. A guy that works relief for us just lost his job and just purchased a home with his wife and kids 6 months ago. A couple of people that work for me are facing losing their jobs in the upcoming months. I am thankful to have a job and I will do whatever it takes to keep for my family. My wife's current position in the school system may be on the chopping block, but she has 10 years in so I believe she will be protected. Our county government is $39 million in debt and the school system is $50 million in debt. We are in trouble.
So I will continue to drive my beat up truck and not buy anything.
