If you ask me, I haven’t made that much this year unlike last year. My earnings from January to present is just a quarter of what I earned from July to December of last year.
Income was really down for most people I know. And the effect of this global financial crisis is really great. My cousin’s husband who works in San Jose, California lost his job a month ago and is still looking for a job right now. He has three kids to feed and my cousin is a stay-at-home mom. My aunt’s in-laws are also struggling abroad and are thinking of going back here. A friend’s business might close by the end of this year.
I am still thankful that I am earning a decent amount of money these days.
How about you?
