What worries me...
Sunday, 28 September 2008
... is that we could be sinking into another Great Depression with the recession in the US.
I've studied the effects of the Great Depression in history so I have a fair idea of how utterly terrible it was. And I know enough to say I don't want to live through that.
It really worries me.
What if I can't afford to live in the future? I mean, I have all these dreams, hopes and expectations for my future, but what if I can't get that. I want to big paying job, with the huge house, and a expensive car which screams "wealth", holidays every other year, maybe even moving to London, everything the best of the best. It sounds materialistic, but living a good life would make me happy. I'd never want to live in poverty. But I might not get that. My parent's and family worry me every day with discussions about investing my money in houses, the price of petrol, the price of food, the price of living! And it's only going to get worse. How will I be able to have the perfect life I want if I cant afford to live? I'll be able to afford a car within a year, but I wont be able to afford to drive it. How funny is that?
But it worries me.
