Is anyone keeping more cash around the house like I am or wondering when they make a deposit if they will see that money again?
I heard the other day the Treasury's 3 month (bills?) were paying 0% and people were still buying them. I remember reading that during the Depression people bought government notes at NEGATIVE interest and I thought THAT would never happen again. HA!
For the folks that have entered a response to Karls original question...... How long do you think you will be out? Can you survive in your occupation or will you need to find other work?
I live in a HUGE tourism state and I think this will be ugly for at least 2 years.
I think The City of London will be a nightmare for at least the next 12 months; they are just not hiring in my salary range at present.
I am expecting not to find "proper" work for at least another 12 months; maybe something will come along; I think the UK is in big crap for at least 2-4 years, but some of the banks will start re-hiring when they can get SOME finance and start some speculative trading again.
