Big DUH Of The Day!
Filed under: Business BlitzA new study shows that most Americans are stressed out by the economy. Wow.
Really????
Shocking!
Plus, more than 75% of Americans are reporting unhealthy side effects from the ongoing financial crisis.
Get used to it, bbs. It's not going away any time soon!

I get stressed reading how stressed everyone is…
Woopdeedoo!!! Time for the Great Econ Scream
duhhh
Fuck grocery stores! Plant a garden! Buy in bulk, grains etc…. Shop online from small farms or farmers markets. Buy local! I'm totally serious about this! One of the single best things to do to combat the financial crunch and global warming is to grow your own! localharvest.org
.
That was my good dead for the day and you better listen fuckers!
Yeah I think it also has made me reconsider coming to these blogs to find out what's happening in other people's lives. How are they dating, how are they wasting their money, what goodies celebs are getting for free or how much they are making for doing little or nothing.
I need to fix my shit first and this indulging in a materialistic celebrity obsessed culture is no longer for me. Sorry Perez but I'm just not that interested anymore.
every one needs to stop bugging the fuck out and being drama queens, this isnt the first time this has happened at all. the economy will bounce back, but no one can expect it to in one day. CHILL OUT seriously.
Re: midgettink5 – agreed
hey perez i just visited your sponsors. can you tell them to lower their prices so maybe i'll be able to buy something??? thanks, toots.
Considerably, we're still doing better than most of the world. How about starting a gratitude journal? Be thankful for what we DO have. It's not like 1929 hen your $$$ wasn't insured or if you were down and out there was no welfare. Come on, be positive!
YEAH, THE SIDE EFFECTS ARE HUNGER AND EXHAUSTION FROM NOT HAVING ENOUGH FOOD ON THE TABLE AND WALKING TOO MUCH.
Oh grow a pair.
perez, please don't patronize regular people by telling us to "get used to it".
NO. we don't have to get used to it. our lives are crumbling. we aren't famous. we aren't rich. we can't wear new clothes everyday then toss them. we are going without food. health insurance. gas. jobs.
reality check, please. get used to it.
I guess i'm in the otehr 25 percent bc i'm living life just fine- i havent noticed a difference in my life –but then i dont live my life on credit, i have a killer retirement plan and i dont buy crazy shit i cant afford, like big fucking mcmansions and try and emulate all thes eclelebs who live crazy excessive. live normal and be happy with basic life people-
So they wasted more money to fund a study for this? Brilliant. Is it any wonder our country is in trouble?
We seriously need a change in leadership. And people need to wake the hell up.
holy shit!! really!!!?!?! the sky is falling!! the sky is falling! oh my oh my! everything totally is shitty in the economy right now!! what am i going to do??!? i am sooooooo stressed because i can't buy the new iphone and my credit cards are all maxed out so i can't buy more video games! and i'm also so stressed out because i can't go out to dinner every night and i can't drink and smoke all i please and i'm gonna have to get a job, which sucks, but at least i can drive my mercedes there even though i will make 30K/yr. and my parents won't even pay for everything either, cause i'm like 30 yrs old!! life is so totally unfair! i think we need a change in leadership in this country cause it's like all the republicans' fault, cause they all are mean and they make life tough on all us people who just want to live and have a good time. and if things still suck, then it will totally be the democrats fault too!! i mean, it feels like we're totally in a great depression! i'm soooooo stressed!
I don't know who the hell they ask for this studies. They didn't ask me or anyone on my area or my family or friends area, who are they asking? I guess they just assumed everybody was stressed by all this which is true.
I don't think this "recession" is affecting anyone who has spent their money wisely. It is affecting people who go out and get LOANS to pay for everything, who use CREDIT cards to buy everything, etc. I have not been affected because I don't purchase things that I don't need and can't afford just to LOOK like I'm living the good life. Maybe this "recession" will help wake materialistic American's asses up- If you can't afford it, don't buy it assholes!
but obama said the economy is not going to get worse!!!!
And?
I knew that a long time?
You're right - it won't go away soon.
-
The republican inherited a very, very good economy - we were in the black !!!
-
8 years of a Republican administration and 10 out of 12 years of a Republican congree has wreaked havoc on this country.
-
We all know that it will take ANY administration YEARS to dig back out of this.
-
Thanks, Republicans - your past votes have caused great harm to your parents retirement plans, your children's future, and your own miserable well-being.
These are terrifying financial times, of course people are being physically and emotionally effected! People are losing their life long homes and jobs they;ve had for years. Retirement benefits have dropped 2 trillion in the last 15 months alone! What's not to be stressed about?
