Not so much of a depression as a recession again.

People are working but for less money. One job does NOT pay the bills anymore. Wives working,children working everyone I know seems to be cutting back on spending. More local vacations and less cruises and islands around here anyway.
We keep pretty active in our little community through schools and churches and that is happening all around here. And yes people are comparing notes and taking about it. When will "it" end. And just what "it" is. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/doh.gif" alt="" />

Being in a resort community and capitalizing on it by cleaning homes on the area lakes we see a great drop in Chicago's wealthy hiring cleaning people and those who still have regulars like us are cutting back to no winters, and every other week instead of weekly. And others still only once a month from bi-monthly. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/frown.gif" alt="" />

So if the wealthy,and commoners are all cutting back judging from Delavan.Lake Geneva,and Fontana Wisconsin people are all tightening their belts.

I'm toying with doing a bank job for some much need cash in a hurry. I am still in the planing stages but I am open to suggestions as to how and what to do. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/paperbag.gif" alt="" />

Peace.
