The sky is falling, the globe is warming, my country's warring, leaders are lying, time is running… John Legend This is pretty much the backdrop in which we are making our financial decisions today. Chicken Little would be right at home with the fear running rampant in the world we have made up. Despite the declared end of the recession by Warren Buffet, the roller coaster ride continues. Last week stocks again were pushed to one-year highs as the market continued its rally. Then markets closed down as a surprising housing report regressed to show a decline in home sales last month. Unemployment claims were down mid September, then up again at the end of the month. Other currencies continue to gain value over the dollar, pushing the dollar out of its long held position as the base currency for the world. World economics will never go back to the good old days, where the US was the pack leader. With all this perceived chaos set in motion, what kind of investment strategy is best? What’s a sister to do?

It's so hard to know what to do now. In this reset economy nothing goes back to what was normal. I'm really looking forward to the show to get some advise. All I know is that I need to stay focused on my end goal, and not get tied up in all the specifics - recession/countries warring/global warming. I decided I wasn't going to do the recession, and for the most part I've been successful. I've learned that life gives you what you ask for - consciously or unconciously!
Money is a tool to help us get what we want and where we want in life, and like any other tool we have to know how to use it properly to get the most out of it. Investment 101 just wasn't part of my upbringing, even no I don't take the time to manage my money to make it work best for me. I think we need to get educated on money matters.. When you understand something, really dissect it, there is no more fear.
