OUCH

Thursday, March 4th, 2010

Welcome back!

We usually go to the smallest penny each month.

This month, a couple of times those pennies went astray. OUCH We need Outer Banks vacations after this mess is straightened out.

So far, I’ve been notified of NSF checks hitting the bank when I hac believed that there was money in there waiting for them. NSF are 3 letters that are dreaded by those who balance check books each month. That overdraft money is really needed in our home, not in the bank’s pocket.

Anyone know where I can sell some paper back books, cheap. Only 50 cents each. Oh, how abaout some unused computer programs discs?

Recession / Depression

Wednesday, July 16th, 2008

Fancy words to say that people are having trouble with their money. Trouble paying bills, supporting their families.

The media is very fond of using fancy words to express what they have to say…..sometimes, plain speaking is the best.

People are losing their homes. People are losing their jobs. Any nest eggs that have been put away for the elderly, by the elderly,are vanishing. I hear politicians hollering that the government needs to do something. I don’t hear any clear cut ideas on what the government is supposed to do, though. The media is squawking, the politicians are squawking, most of them are running around like chickens with their heads cut off. GROSS IDEA, and about as useful, too. How did this mess get to where it is today? Greed - It doesn’t do anything, except feed itself over and above anything or anyone else. Credit card companies, banks, investors, speculators all want to make money. The only trouble is that they are pulling the rest of us down with them. Yes, I am squawking, too. I imagine that a lot of us out in the public are squawking, but who is listening?
