The times are really bad with the world economy really very sluggish. Many have lost their jobs and are striving desperately to make their ends meet. But, are you the lucky one who has got increment this year. I know some who have got increments but rather small amounts. I know this is an inappropriate question in the present circumstances, but it may give a ray of optimism to everybody.

the recession is an awful place to be,
but as some people are loosing their jobs it also gives people a great chance to make money and invest.
My online business sign ups have increased so far in the 2nd quarter by 157% on what it was last year
the stock market is also at an all time low now is the time if you know what you are doing to invest in shares if you can afford too of course.
House re-possessions are up if you can afford buy the re-possessions and sell them in a few years when the market is stable again
there are loads of ways people make money in a recession you just have to think smart so to speak.
Also sod the credit crunch as the more people who worry about the credit crunch the longer we will be in one.
good luck all.
