Economic-financial crisis is coming.

America is in a recession.

Economic trouble has spread far beyond the USA to major countries in Europe and Asia.

Some business companies and banks are going  bankrupt.

Yes, you are right, the whole civilised world is aware of this - it is on televison 24 hours a day at the moment and reported in every newspaper you pick up and now we can read about it on TC as well.

Well we have ridden recessions before, and we will get through this again.  I feel no sympathy for the greedy young city folk (on both sides of the Atlantic) who have been gambling through their cocaine filled noses, with money that did not exist, and making millions of pounds from the back of it.  As for the founders of those prestigious banks?  I am sure they are turning in their graves at the activities of their institutions over the past few decades.  Would YOU gamble with ten times more money than you actually had?

 

Well done to the US government for refusing to bail them out this time.

 

The stupidity of those financial institutions will affect us all for years - maybe we will have higher bills and less public spending for a while, but they are in debt by billions and have lost their executive houses and flashy cars - and I can´t help but smile!

October 2008:

Economic Crisis (Financial crisis) in the U.S.

The new hard times in the U.S.

An economic collapse.

USA Dollar 850 billion financial bail-out plan ( An economic resque package) finalized.

Congressional leaders and the White House agreed Sunday to a $850 billion rescue of the ailing financial industry after lawmakers insisted on sharing spending controls with the Bush administration.

The biggest U.S. bailout in history won the tentative support of both presidential candidates.

Will the bail-out work?

They ask : World on the edge?No!

A new age of global capitalism starts now.

And a presidential debate in the U.S. 

A struggle between Mr.Barack Obama and John McCain.

Mr.Cool vs. Mr.Hot.

The presidential candidates see the world very differently.

Mr. Obama will win the election?

What will happen to the world economy?

We´ll see it.

 I think a more fundamental answer is "don´t have what you can´t afford" and that does not mean don´t borrow, but only borrow what you can realistically afford to pay back.

 

Icelands financial industry has today collapsed!  The country borrowed five times what it´s economy was worth.  Sounds like a good plan!

This isn´t the first time we have had a recession and it won´t be the last....why are people so shocked?  So many companies/people have been excessively greedy for so long....its hard to imagine that it took this long!  Wasn´t it dear old Mom who said, "never live beyond your means?" Best piece of advice I ever got!
