Economic Troubles

Published by mrfrugal at 9:14 pm under Business, Energy Costs, economics, financial Edit This

What the hell do we do now? Our 401k’s have lost half their peak values in the span of three months.  The national unemployment rate is around 7.5%, companies are asking to have government handouts and to top it off Britney Spears is back in the tabloids. Again, I ask you what are we to do now.  Let’s start by cutting the fat around your house because let’s face it; the only people we care about are ourselves.

First, cut your energy costs. You must realize that once energy has been exhausted through an outlet it is gone and never coming back.  If we cut our energy costs we cut our reliance on the dirty companies such as oil and coal.  When these industries are brought back down to earth with lower profits the better it will be for all of us. Less medical bills to start and you’ll have more spending cash for that trip to Vegas.

Second, shit the hell if I know. This economic situation is new to me.
