How is the economic downturn affecting you?

Question

Are you skint?, Is your mam and dad skint or lost their jobs?, have you had to curb your spending? or are you filthy rich and don`t give a toss?

Answer 1

I'm not filthy rich but fairly well off. Fortunately I've seen the economic problems coming for several years (the writing has been on the wall that long, but nobody wanted to read it), so I've been able to arrange matters so I won't suffer too much from the downturn.

Yes it will hurt me, but not as much as it will hurt a lot of other people. That's a relative advantage.

Answer 2

Answer 3

more creative, more innovative, more seeking and ultimately, more opportunities!

Answer 4

I am one of those it will have no impact on.

Answer 5
