I got a 3% raise today! Whoo hoo! 3% may not sound like much but we were under a pay and hire freeze at the start of the year so a 3% raise ain't too bad! I'm happy to get it. The DOW is flirting with 10,000. That may not be as exciting as Whatever's flirting but trust me, this economy is turning a corner. Hang in there if you're out of work. The economy and the job market will recover. It always does. There is way too much money sitting on the sidelines right now. It won't sit there forever. | ||

Folks at link below agree with John: things are getting better all the time. http://www.blog.speculist.com/archives/cat_better_ all_the_time.html | ||

It's a false recovery until something happens with jobs . . . The 401(k) appears to have made strides, we just sold a house and ( I thank the $8,000 incentive) we got wildly more for it than we'd guessed and it was on the market less than 36 hours . . . but . . . as long as roughly 500,000 folks a week are LOOSING jobs . . . . it's going to be tough. I converted half my 401(k) to good old fashioned Au just to cover my butt at my age. We'll see. A year ago I predicted "late Q12010" . . .could happen. By the way . . . for a raise . . . 3% is not bad. We have what has evolved to a "built in" raise because although I am not part of the collective bargaining unit they can;t give us any less than they get . . . so I cheer the union on during negotiations every year. It's typically in the 3% range. Also last week, when I signed with Columbia, I find that they have a built in 3% annual pay escalation. No, all in all, a bad thing. | ||

It would seem that the people may not be convinced that the economy is turning a corner. It's a tough recovery when the people don't believe in it. http://js.polls.yahoo.com/quiz/quiziframe.php?poll_id=46067  | ||

I went looking, seriously, to dig up some unemployment stats across the US and came across this: http://www.slate.com/id/2216238/ I won't spoil it with a screen capture as it is a time-lapse presentation. Click Start on the about box when it comes up, which doesn't start anything, then on the green play button... | ||

I became one of those numbers in San Diego county in Feb 2009. Looks like I have a lot of company. | ||

I would like to thank the economy for driving up the price of gold Unfortunately because of the economy, I have had to offload some to stay with in the lecherous means I consider status quo. If you keep the single guy down with out access to discresionary spending, y'all in a short boat drip to a depression. Keep the government out of my checks and pockets and I will stimulate the economy with more bike stuff, more car stuff, more recreational excursions, and continue to bank roll the local Seattle Strippers.

+++++1 Cityx could not agree more!! Not sure if it stimulates the economy as a hole but I know I am happier letting my money go one dollar at a time!!! | ||
