[QUOTE="Duckslayer100, post: 366730, member: 1485"] I gotta say, as a 30-something who is now facing down the barrel of another possible recession, I'm getting the all-too-familiar deja vu. The last one I was living with my now-wife, no kids, in an apartment, paycheck to paycheck as she finished up nursing school. She graduated and there were NO nursing jobs available. It took her months before finally getting into Meritcare in Fargo. Then I had to jump through the hoops that was finding a job with my meager professional experience at that point, in a brand new city to boot. I'd like to say I'm older and wiser now, and with two kiddos and a home, a hell of a lot more cautious. I have a steady job. The wife works two. We're making it and comfortable. But you can bet we're not planning any big expenditures any time soon. Keep paying down debt (two car loans and a mortgage) and keep putting cash away for a rainy day. [/QUOTE]
