Um... Yesterday, I found a $20 bill, and I picked it up. So today, my dad offered me some money and I turned it down (I don't need cash right now) and he said "Your old enough to understand the econimic situation the country's in? Well I'll use it. Thanks for being grown up. Don't worry it'll get better." (Or something to that extent) and all this time, I usally just ignored it but now it just hit me that its worse than I thought...

the economic"optimists" predict this recession should be over in 18 months...

but idk, the way prices are flucxuating and how many jobs have been lost so the famillies imcome is not being injected into the national rotation of money(sorry its hard to word right >.<)...i think its going to last longer then 18 months...

it's pretty bad..the only good thing right now is the low price of gas here...which is $0.72 a litre..((works out to be about $2.88 a gallon)) which we consider cheap..even better though when I was in West Virginia and North Carolina about a week or so ago..the gas was $1.54 a gallon

but..other then that..i've notices things sell cheap and people not buying...but me personally?..it hasn't affected..but family wise? my dad has changed shifts at work..so has my mom

Welcome to the forums? This seems like an odd very first post, and is making me suspicious of your intentions.
