As usual, the media is very effective at pushing those trigger emotions...the most sensitive of which is, fear.
But, reality is often nowhere to be found in or around the news studios  |

MonkeyMama - I think it is a couple of things. I think zooracer is right and the situation really isn't as bad as the media is making it out to be (what else is new). As for the optimism on this thread, you are looking at a select group of people who choose to be responsible with their money and live below their means. In that situation, economic forces simply don't impact us that much. We just ride the tide and know that we'll benefit from the eventual recovery.
