Has current recession impacted your life significantly?
My wife was told this past friday that her job is likely to be terminated due to budget cuts. We both work at a university, and not only has the endowment taken a significant hit (as have pretty much most investments for people), but tuition payments are down as more students will be qualifying for financial aid. Ergo, budgets are being cut across the board.
Anybody else taking a direct hit? (aside from almost all of us seeing our retirement accounts down significantly)

My dad has lost his bonus for the year and got a wage cap. He got like a $35,000 bonus last year so that is kind of a hit.

it is a contract, you don't pay, you breach that contract. you get a judgment if you can't show that you did not breach that contract.
judgments are serious. maybe the loan companies should think about things with all this "bailout" "spending"....

Seeker of virtue
I keep getting asked if i do collections. I havent really expanded past my current job right now. but it might be something to look into.
If we were as industrious to become good as to make ourselves great, we should become really great by being good, and the number of valuable men would be much increased; but it is a grand mistake to think of being great without goodness; and i pronounce it as certain that there was never yet a truly great man that was not at the same time truly virtuous." - Ben Franklin
Imagine what good we can do if we all joined together, united as followers of Christ - M. Russell Ballard

I was finally able to buy a home here in Los Angeles county due to the significantly decreased property values.
"If ye love wealth greater than liberty, the tranquility of servitude greater than the animating contest for freedom, go home from us in peace. We seek not your counsel, nor your arms. Crouch down and lick the hand that feeds you; May your chains set lightly upon you, and may posterity forget that ye were our countrymen."
Samuel Adams
