How has the recession affected you?

Browse the archives

Almost everyone with investments and retirement savings has been affected, including me. I am hopeful that the stimulus money will have an immediate impact on the economy.

The recession has me thinking about applying for scholarships to pay for college. It hasn’t stopped me from going out of state, but student loan debt has been on my mind recently.

Retirement investments have taken a major hit for me, but they should rebound in a few years. Hopefully.
