I know my dad lost his job.. luckily he found another that paid nearly 150% more.

other than that..... it hasn't affected me.

Just got into a new contract. Actually working with the government of Australia, U.S., Canada, and U.K.

So no worries for now as I was guaranteed that even if there was an economic crash I would (a long with all the other employees) be taken care of.

Prior to that, I had to slow down on buying clothes and video games.

What are you doing for this coalition of four governments?
