Economic crisis
I was laid off from my job because of the dreadful economy!
Just money for bills. No
Just money for bills. No extra for fun stuff like movies.
Tix, please!
Thanks!
Financial
It has caused me to shop smarter & less often. I’ve been on Social Security Disability for 8 years, so I was already on a limited income. But, lately it’s rough w/ prices so high on everything.
impacted me
Money is soo tight now. no freedom to spend at will.barely making it , but i know this too shall pass.
How'd the recent financial crisis impact you?
I was impacted directly and indirectly. I was lost my job and medical insurance. In directly many people in my community not only lost their jobs, but their homes which caused the value of my home to decrease. My fear is if something isn’t done, crime will continue to increase to the point of impacting me directly.
crisis
I live in a tourist town so our economy was pretty much unaffected, aside from gas prices.
Margin Call
I lost money in the stock market and lost my job. The important thing is I still have my health.
I work an extra job to make
I work an extra job to make make bills, scrimp and scrape up money when and where I can, and find myself in a position I thought I’d be in right out of high school instead of right out of college.
The financial crisis
Due to the financial crisis, companies are losing money. I was just laid off two weeks ago.
