March 13, 2008 by thinkhappy

It seems like all Americans are watching the TV and waiting for the latest bad news about the economy. We can’t help it. It’s on every day! Unemployment rates are high and the stock market is unstable. We are feeling the pinch at the grocery store and most certainly at the pump. Even the president seemed surprised when he was told gas might reach $4 per gallon.

Although our government is working on relief, you can’t help but wonder if it will truly help. The more fear we have, the tighter we hold onto our money and the worse it gets. We can clip coupons and carpool to trim the fat when possible. However, we have to drive and we need to eat.

What does your household do to save when funds are limited? Do you believe the governments relief effort will help? Come talk about the economy and other issues weighing on your mind in the Women’s’ Nest Women’s Forum Financial area.
