Actually, those in the tech and online field seem to be particularly secure, if not quite recession-proof. Technology's raison d'etre is to make our lives more efficient. Businesses are going to be looking to create more efficiencies to help them weather this storm. They may not be making major capital investments, but I doubt we'll see a huge crash in the business of SEO experts and tech products. <em>Jonathon Narvey's last blog post: <a href='http://jnarvey.com/2008/10/08/globe-post-afghanistan-and-the-murder-of-foreign-policy-by-a-thousand-headlines/' rel="nofollow">Globe & Post: Afghanistan and the Murder of Foreign Policy by a Thousand Headlines</a></em> My sentiments exactly.

The Money will not shrivel up and disappear--only if you want to borrow it. As long as you do not owe the Bank any money, i.e., credit cards, personal loans, line-of-credit, then everyone should be OK. If you like your credit cards, and you carry a balance, you'll pay. Debt will be your enemy. I think the markets will rebound in 2 to 3 quarters, but inflation might take us on a 1980s style ride in the meantime. R.R.S.P.s like volatility--but if you got the cash--well hang on to it for while. ...but I'm not an economist. ;) It's been a while since I posted here. Time sure flies....
