Everybody is just broke!!!! The Recession

Recession!!!

As if some of us were not poor enough already....It just hit us in the face as though it was a surprise but surprisingly enough it wasn't a surprise because some economist & analyst saw it coming and made a mention of it and we somehow turned a blind eye to it...talk about denial......

For a fruit cake like me it is really difficult to understand the concept of recession especially when I still see people spending money like they live in a planet different from ours where no recession exists...

Just when I thought I was going up to the peak of my career then we start experience the decline in economic trade and prosperity which in turn means for most of us no increase & definitely no promotion....Eish....what a bummer hey.....

AnyWho it is in such times that we are required to put our best foot forward, talk positive & only hope for the best till we get through this because as Daddy on Yfm would say " Being Broke is Just Childish"....that's it

My point is.....this period is exactly that it's a "Period" which means it will be over before we know it....In the true spirit of Ayoubaness....Amandlaness to the young generation who through innovation will see this country through & through!!!! & remeber to spend sparingly

I get the feeling that even after the recession is over people will still be broke and blaming the recession for it for years to come, phela thina we were saying recession recession even before it struck SA.
