Protect myself from what? My job is secure - my industry is somewhat recession-proof - and I have enough seniority to dodge any temporary layoffs. My home is paid off. My car and truck are paid. I owe only $1200 on my Harley, but my credit card is high. No problem, really. I'll pay it off by the end of the year.
I see by the comment under your name you must have been a Bush supporter, and voted for McSame.
Now I ask you, how did Obama get the economy in such a mess by the end of the day on 1/20/09? Or gee might it have a whoooooooooooooole lot to do with the idiot that thought 'trickle down' was the solution. Exactly how well did that work?
Do you still have cash in the bank or is it under your mattress?
I'm seriously considering taking mine out.
I don't keep much in the bank and haven't for the past two years. I only keep enough in our checking account for our cell, monthly utility bills and food, I pay my monthly bills online. My wife and I only have one credit card each, we cancelled the others we had.
