ya when will the economy be good again?

you are asking the million dollar question here!! some numbers and/or history can kinda give you the idea when the economy will be better, i will not use the word "good" at this point, for example, it takes six months for the "economist" to gather some DATA to announce we are in recession. And the longest recession in the US history is 2 years time. so we have to think how bad this time is going to be.

(I do understand it was history that i was looking at. will history repeat itself in the economy world? it should be in another topic)

How come no one is enjoying the recession?

I am enjoying it.

It is estimated that unemployement rate will rise to 9% at the end of this year

I think we might hit double digit!

作者: BiscottiGelato 時間: 2009-2-6 14:23

From news and radio they claim that unemployment rate is beyond what most economist predicted. Yet the market reacted the opposite today.

How much of this doom and gloom is priced in right now? Need to find stuff that have the risk relatively under control if we are in for a longer term depression (hyperinflation and all currency becomes garbage, etcetc), but best positioned for growth when the whole landscape become bullish again...

Boom and bust are one entity altogether.
There will be no boom if there's no bust.

You learn about the world much more in recessions.
The best time to experience a recession is when you are young.

Hear lots of layoff news around my friends in Van. And my friend in HK actually got laid off. Econ is bad definitely...In my opinion, if we got cash on hand, this (or about a few months from now) would be a good time to buy.

有好多工根本冇必要存在
經濟好既時候就可以容忍佢地存在
經濟唔好就係時候cut

如果你俾人lay off
你應該檢討你係咪要轉行
或者你係咪表現太差

Recession其實只係為下一次繁榮做準備

所以民主黨係幾仆街
好似汽車工人呢D垃圾呢個時候就係最好既機會踢走佢地
但係仲要用稅款救佢地
所以我對美國都好失望

有好多人D生活過得太舒服
令到佢地已經唔知道咩叫奮鬥
同埋以為好多野都係應份同必然

Recession就係最好既wake-up call
一來你可以重新學下咩叫競爭
二來你會更加努力
為社會提供更多生產力

But there are not enough jobs for everyone, right?

競爭 means somebody is going to LOSE. What is the ultimate result of LOSING?

冇輸邊有贏
我都覺近來共產主義有抬頭跡象
怕且資本主義都已經開始邁入墳墓。

而且你次次都唔輸
點識贏

好似我之前輸左錢
先識後來點樣贏返

先輸後贏總好過先贏後輸

他們一大批均是兩年前入職擔任財務投資客戶服務的人員，當時「金股齊鳴」，銀行需要大量人手游說客戶參與基金及股票投資，想不到「打完齋唔要和尚」，現時游說客人投資本已甚為困難，又突然提高目標幾倍，根本是難於登天，批評這是銀行強迫他們辭工的伎倆。

所以呢D人被炒係應該
佢地可能一早就唔應該有呢份工
之前好景咪請佢地做臨工
而家冇需求仲唔裁做咩
就算要怪都係怪佢地前幾年跟風入錯行
冇得怨人

其實香港D大學生成日睇錢選科
今次係最好教訓
越多大學生失業越好

Strongly agree. I hope this recession will wake up most Canadian.

Here, the people think they are very smart. The country has tons of debt, unemployment is high. The Olympics fiasco is another example of ineptitude.

CEO被炒就一定係表現差
正如你所講
有職位為公司發展而設，亦有職位為公司基本運作而設

你當初選擇得一D發展職位就預左唔可能一世咁好景
通常呢D職位人工響好景既時候都會高出平均
如果你好天打埋落雨柴
而家根本唔會擔心

景氣差，二度就業，通常很難如願找到好工作。美國有一個廣告界的主管遭到裁員，來到星巴克當掃地「阿伯」，但是他非常樂在其中，認為比百萬年薪的工作更快樂。走進星巴克看到阿伯在掃地，大家可能不會多瞧他幾眼，但他可是暢銷書「星巴克救了我一命」的作家麥可蓋茲基，這是個傳奇故事，麥可蓋茲基本來是大型廣告公司高階主管，63歲那年被裁員失業，來到星巴克小坐，因此開啟了人生的第二春。從百萬年薪屈就一個最底層的工作，整天掃地抹桌子，但是麥可調整心態，認真做好每件事，學習跟晚一輩的同事還有客人相處，終於讓他重新找回人生意義，他說，非常喜歡現在的工作。來喝咖啡的客人也很喜歡他，歷經人生這麼重大的轉折，麥可樂在其中，更寫了一本書鼓勵中年失業的上班族，只要努力，一定會找到了人生新的出口。好萊塢看上他的故事，決定拍成電影，由奧斯卡影帝湯姆漢克斯來扮演他。
