Right Things Slash Wrong Things
July 29, 2008 Filed Under: Life, Recession 189 words
I’m talking about prices. The stuff that we want to buy are too expensive. And the stuff that we don’t really want or moreso need, for that matter, are getting cheaper. I’m talking about airline tickets to go to funerals, food, gas, and cars. Who really wants to buy a new SUV now? Even if it is 1/2 price? I bet you I’d scoop it up if it went to $800 though! I was looking around for the cheapest tickets to Jamaica and they are ranging from $450-a little over $2000! I saw a few for $366-388, but then you have to wait at the airport overnight for a connecting flight.
And houses! My mom was looking at foreclosures in our area and they are getting really low! Some of the communities near us are in foreclosure with 4br/2ba for less than $80,000. I’m talking single-family, standalone homes with private backyards. Definitely beats the townhouse with a shared little strip (I don’t even think you can call it a backyard). And prices will probably go lower!
Well, like the AllState guy said, “If this isn’t a recession, it sure feels like one…”
