more bad news...

If I lose much more in my "safe annuity" I'll have $10.00 for my old age. I also asked my financial guy to move it to more stable places when the dot coms fell apart. He did, but some is still in the market.

Luckily, I have a pension, will collect Social Security for as long as it lasts, and already bought my house. Except for wanting to leave it to my daughter, I don't really care if the mortgage ever gets paid off.

I feel for my daughter and SIL though. He's not working, and there are just no jobs up here. He's in the electrician's union but there are no jobs to fill. He always managed to find something, but with the economy like this, he's just not able to find work.

My feeling is that he will find something, but who knows when.

Thanks everyone, i did move some money around, i change one thing, instead of putting money in my savings, i have a safe at home i been putting cash into, cause my sister told me to do so, cause its going to get worse before it gets better, i don't feel myself that this stimulas package is going to work, and i want cash on hand, in case i need it, i don't know how this is going to effect my bank but they got hit twice and i'm not chancing it anymore... my grandmother did this in the old recession, and she was glad she did. and i'm going to follow in her footsteps here.. just to be safe...
