We have heard it started with sub-prime mortgages.

I had yet to see a crisp  comprehensive analysis  until now.

As we rebuild our lives, it’s good to know what to avoid and what new regulations will be meaningful to foster a sustainable economic future.

The media tends to exaggerate negative news; focusing on the most dramatic statistics; constantly making  comparisons with the great Depression . It can become down right depressing.

If you were unfortunate to lose your job, especially for those of us over 40, our worst fear can become a crippling ,depressing event.

Grieve the loss! but  don’t remain there!

if we remain flexible and retain a positive attitude, we can look for ways of turning our lemons into lemonade.

We can create unexpected opportunities. Sure, we will be forced to take a new strategy, we may be able to pursue career paths that we previously never thought of.
