How Is Everyone Surviving The Recession?

I put on the news and the first 5 minutes was non stop bad news about the economy. In New York we may have a new train/bus fare between $2.50 to $3! All I hear about is the stock market doing bad, people getting fired and women getting their purses snatched. Clearly I’m not poppin champagne or trickin if I had it. If your wifey/man/family ask for anything expensive this Christmas hit them with the, “It’s a recession,” line. These are the times where you stop trying to be flashy and build that bank account up. How are things going for everyone out there?

    I got laid off from an engineering gig at a tv station about a month ago. Having trouble collecting unemployment. Nobody round my way is really hiring, and all the jobs i can find are a fraction of what i was getting paid at my old job. I aint got no ends. Going back to hustling is looking good at the moment.

    The hard part is keeping away from the good sales all these department stores are having. I can’t build the bank account in case i get laid off becuase shit is cheaper than ever.

    I just spent over 50k and lost a bit of my hairline getting a MBA in Finance to become an investment banker.. only to have the rug pulled out from under me with this financial crisis ish.

    Now i’m stuck begging for a job I could have done before I “wasted” my time going to graduate school.

    Life’s a bad bitch!
