The Depression

Depression is bad. Sometimes there's medicine for it. Too bad our economy can't take a big ole preventative pill.

Fortunately, there's good news!!

Ready!?!

People live through depression. All kinds of depressions. They live through others' depressions, their own depressions, monetary depressions, everything.

My Granny lived through the Great Depression. She was born in 1912. So she would've been 17-ish when it started. She got married, had my dad, lived a very long life in a little town, and gave me and my brothers LOTS of money for our birthdays! So, she was okay. So was mostly everyone else. So here's the real question...why are people panicking?

Already one guy killed his family and himself. Read here. Contrary to popular belief, during the Great Depression, there were not many suicides. People just dealt. And everyone can and will deal. Think about it. How many things could we go without that we spend money on? There are about 2847092387423 ways to save money, and we can do it. Everyone else did it. I plan to do it...or live in a Shantytown.

Now, I'm going to tell you what job you need in order to have a "recession proof" job. (No promises on a depression-proof job though).

1. Sales Rep
2. Software Design and Development
3. Nursing
4. Accounting Executive
5. Accounting Staff
6. Networking and Systems Administration
7. Administrative Assistant
8. Business Analysis and Implementation
9. Business Analysis and Research
10. Finance Staff

So basically, if you're not a business or IT major, you should switch.

P.S. - Economist don't really think we're going to enter a depression. So don't worry about anything I just said.
