Layoffs and Closings in Bushworld
The other thing I wanted to say is that today's world economy affects each
of us in our work, our purchase costs, our quality of life. Jobs are
moving, laws are changing, technology is empowering, production is waning
and waxing all over the world, some up and some down. As Bill Clinton
advised years ago, workers should expect and prepare themselves to change
jobs many times over their working lifetime. My view on appropriate
planning has not changed. Make the money where you can, pay off your land
loan, learn skills, buy tools, become as food and energy independent as
possible. Don't pay interest except on real estate and education. Let the
rest of the world live in fear and frenzy. Live the homestead life.
