Ladies and gents these are incredibly scary times for the United States. For the first time in our nations history, the dow has dropped at the lowest point ever. If you're not familiar with the markets and financial lingo that basically means that we are headed toward a long recession. Do yourself a favor and check your money. Check your 401k's, check any investments you have, and get to your nearest financial consultant asap.
If you're a college student currently seeking a loan, make an appointment with your financial aide person asap as loans will be hard to come by and the interest rates will be ridicioulous.
One of my favorite financial guru's Suze Ormans strongly reccomends that you head over to My FDIC to insure that your money is safe. Remember not every bank is FDIC insured, which means your money is not guranteed to be protected.
As one of the congressman said on CNN today, "heaven help us."
