Hitting the Financial Precipice
ARE WE THERE YET?
Seems like a good bulk of the US population is approaching the financial precipice. Been reading how health insurance (for people lucky enough to enjoy) have increased 3-5 fold with employers in 2024. The cost of everything becoming prohibitive. Massive layoffs. The media adds salt to the wound by touting strong metrics.
Painful awakening for many.
Hmm, that's not what I'm seeing, and that's not what the numbers are saying.
What numbers are you looking at? I'm not trying to be argumentative, I'm trying to figure out why I keep seeing people here state that the job market is so bad when that's not what I'm seeing, and that's not what the numbers are saying.
I know that we tend to skew more toward rural areas, and those places don't really have good job outlooks. So maybe it's a location thing.
