Is anyone else worried about the economy these days? As I watch our 401k getting smaller and smaller, even though we're adding more and more money into it, I get worried.
I admit, I don't really understand whether that whole 700 Billion Dollar bailout would have worked, but I worry that nobody's doing anything; that congress is stuck in their political circus, not actually getting anything done.
And I wonder what's the answer? Is there an answer? Everything is so complicated and intertwined, is there really a solution?
And can John McCain or Barack Obama really do anything about it all?
What's your take?
I have absolutely positively no stinkin idea!!!
ReplyDeleteI feel the same. I am confused. I wish I liked politics more. I wish it was interesting to my brain, but it is not. I know that is not good. I have no good answers. Sorry. I do love you. Does that help you?
ReplyDeleteI'm with you so confused and nothing makes any sensse. Just got to hope and pray that Some one understands what's going on.
ReplyDeleteToo many things to think about. I don't 100% agree with any one candidate. I just have to go with the one that is close enough. I still have to figure out which one that is.
ReplyDeleteHave you heard of Dave Ramsey? He's a big name financial advisor type person. We love his books, podcast, etc. His guidelines pretty much follow the church's guidelines and are happy to say we are debt free because his plan got us going. Glen gets I think weekly emails from him and this last one was Dave's plan to get out of this mess. I personally didn't understand it so Glen tried explaining it (still didn't understand), but it's a way better plan than the other one.

ReplyDeleteRead Ezra Taft Benson's "The Proper Role of Government" (google it). It won't explain the specific mess we are in, but will lay out what is the underlying cause. He gave your husband a copy when Brad went to see him.
