The guilty, non R-word thread

The Big Red Button

I admit, I feel bad starting this.

But this is the only forum where it feels safe!

I haven't been overly affected by this recession they're all talking about.

Prices everywhere have gone down - what's not to love?!

And, having graduated in June 2008, I fell straight into an unreal job without really trying.

I'm still a gobshte with money and am probably far worse off than most people on the dole! But I will admit I'm very lucky.

Any others like me out there perhaps ...?

Fair play for graduating, and finding a good job. You are indeed lucky.

I know how you feel, Chatterpillar!
I have a stable, well paid job and the recession isn't affecting me financially in any major way...
We are lucky, and it's okay to feel that way! It's not fair that you have to participate in the doom and gloom of the recession when it has little effect on your personal life.
Obviously it wouldn't go down well if you were to tell everyone how great the Big "R" is, but I think this is the one place it's okay to be happy about it

I have only felt the benefits of the recession, though I tend to keep it a secret!

Lots of money from a recession-proof place I work in, whilst studying in college. Cheap everything to spend the cash on!
Yipee!
