While your advice is correct most people I know that were laid off have been looking for work for more then 6 months or even a more then a year. And if they do find a job it is with much less pay.

It really seems like their is something in the air. Like something big getting ready to happen. I have heard others say this as well. I think your right. Look out after Jan.1-10.

My Grandmother is still alive today at age 96. She remembers the Great Depression from beginning to end. When the banks were closing a friend told my grandmother and grandfather that their bank was getting ready to close. Grandmother and Grandfather went to the bank and withdrew their savings out. Soon after that the bank closed their doors. Grandmother told me that she hid the money behind a pictureframe in their house. nice to know that not everyone lost their savings!!
