Just Graduated! & The Future

So I graduated a week ago with a Bachelors in Accounting and it was a great event to mark my success and progression through life. Graduation is a big deal for anyone regardless of whether its high school, middle school or college. I was really glad and to top it off, I graduated with the highest honors (Summa Cum Laude) with a 3.9 out of 4.0 GPA. I was really excited and I thought I’d share the news with you. For those of you who are wondering, I will be going back to school for my Masters in Accounting and will graduate with my Masters same time next year so I’m looking forward to that.

After graduating, I look towards the future with happiness as well as a little nervousness. The reason is that the economy is still kind of down and jobs are harder to find. People are worried about their investments, homes and savings accounts. With everything coming forth, I wonder what is running through peoples minds.

Some people take every day at a time but I am someone who likes to look forward and plan ahead. I wonder what the future holds for me and I am skeptical about how the economy will fare in the upcoming year. I know a lot of friends and family members who are either out of a job or are at the risk of losing their current job. I’m sure when you look around, you probably see a somewhat similar situation. As they say, its a recession when people around you are getting fired, but its a depression, when you are the one getting fired. Sad, but true.

I know that I had previously talked about how the recession was affecting bloggers but I know that not many of us are full time bloggers. I know that several bloggers have other jobs and I wonder how things are working out for you guys. I want to hear how my fellow bloggers are doing in this slowing economy and how the economy has affected you. I wonder if there has been any loss of jobs or if you were able to find other jobs or whatever the case may be. I want to know how you are doing in this economy and I’d really like to see what you have to say about that.

Aside from that, I want people to realize that investing is a good option right now, specially if you are secure and have the funds to invest. No..no.. Don’t invest in cars. I mean, invest in land, a house, falling stocks, bonds, things of that nature. Even things such as diamonds are at a 30% discount due to the economy and can be had for much less than normal. Its time to invest in yourself and your future, so go out there and do it! In the mean time, let me know how the economy has affected your “other job”
