Hold On as Tight as You Can…

People, we are witnessing history in the making as the roots of this recession are rapidly deepening around the world as we learn many countries are following the same pattern. Realize the coming holiday spending season will be the worst ever for many retailers and those effects will show in January and higher unemployment will follow. I am an optimist, but the reality is the economy is going to get much worst before it gets better. The reporting of disturbing statistics continue daily: cpi, housing starts, home resales, foreclosures, unemployment claims, auto sales, stocks, commodities, retail sales and much more. The economic bottom will appear only after all phases of the economy have realized their maximum losses, which is yet to come. My uneducated guess is the bottom will hit between mid January to mid March and a slow steady recovery is likely to start around June. It is clear to see that a period of deflation is ready to take place as inventories of manufactured goods are stockpiling and consumer confidence & spending reach all time lows. Basically your dollars will be worth more tomorrow than today, if you have any left, and salaries will be frozen or even drop as unemployment rises. With prime interest rates heading towards zero, you can understand that just maintaining your savings with no loss will be a great accomplishment. The name of the game is try to hold on to what you have.

Government Bailout or First National Bank of Uncle Sam???

             There are many different opinions about our government subsidizing private corporations’ debt and which of them should qualify for these large sums of tax payers dollars. Believe me, I am the first to support American companies and products made in America, but this bailout idea just doesn’t feel right to me. Many large corporations are using the recession as an excuse to beg the government for funds to pay for their hangover blues from mismanagement and lavish corporate habits.

Since the major banks have slowed lending to corporations, they have to go elsewhere for operating loans and what better place to go to than the U.S. government which has the deepest pockets of all. I think we are between a rock and a hard place, I understand the impact on unemployment if we don’t lend to corporations like GM. It seems like the large defaulting businesses are holding their employees hostage and putting them on display on Main Street for America to see.

Companies like GM have made promises in the past to streamline their production and stay focused on improving the autos fuel economy, they have done neither. It is time for a change and the only way it will happen is to let the ceo’s repair their own problems and figure out how to survive in this recession as the rest of us are forced to. Handing out money to corporations like GM only prolongs the current problems for the employees and gives the executives more tee time on the golf course to decide what to spend it on. Money given to companies like this will not get America out of this recession. Think of the current scenario- sales of housing, autos, and many consumer products are way down. How does loaning a corporation funds improve their sales?... it doesn’t. So how do you increase sales and regain consumer confidence? Simple, give the consumer the means (money) and incentive to start buying again.

To me it is very clear why GM can’t survive in this economy, they need to face the reality that the old days are gone. GM manufactures over 8 brands of autos; Buick, Cadillac, GMC, Hummer, Pontiac, Saab and Saturn in addition to GM’s own foreign imports. Combined, these brands offer over 95 models of vehicles in the marketplace, a bit excessive don’t you think. GM can’t even compete within itself let alone competing with all the other car companies. Would you lend GM your hard earned money to buy yet another auto manufacturer like Chrysler? I don’t think so. If GM was given the bailout money, where do you think it would go- to the consumer, employees or back in executives’ pockets?

It doesn’t take a marketing genius to realize the fact that there is no room in the market place for all of those models, considering how much of the market share has gone to foreign automakers. I say let happen what will happen and let all the American automakers swallow each other until they are full and whoever is left in the end might realize the answer. These are the companies that sat back, watched and some even invited the sale of imported autos in America as the car market was deteriorating.    By Jerry 11.08

  As the Christmas season approaches many of us have already started making our Christmas gift list and planning who we will give gifts to this year. This year do something different as you make your gift list. Go beyond including just your family or friends and add at least one gift or toy to your  list to donate to a child or children’s charity. If you are planning on cutting back on your holiday spending or can’t afford another gift this season I am not suggesting that you to spend more but please consider spending a little less on the other fortunate people on your list to allow the purchase of a Christmas gift to donate to a needy or homeless child. I am sure the others on your list would gladly give up a portion of the cost of their gift to allow a donation for a toy to be given to a needing child on Christmas day.

If you have children of your own explain to them how donating works and ask for their ideas or the type of toys they think another child might want for Christmas. You will be surprised at how interested and helpful your children will be if you take them shopping to pick out a gift for donating. Many of us are struggling to make ends meet in this tough economy but we should be grateful for what we have and consider helping other families and children that may not have any gifts or presents to open on Christmas morning.
