Am I Going Crazy?
I can't help but think about this whole issue of the stock market crashing. Do some people think I'm crazy for thinking this way?
...cuz I'm the type of person who always wants to be prepared for the worst case scenario.
What if?
What if we don't have enough money? What if we don't have enough food? What if I lose my job completely? What if? What if?
What if I can't pay the rent? What if I get kicked out of my apartment because I can't pay the rent? Then where would I live? In my car?! I have two kids gosh.
I've lived in my car before. I'm not a person who needs luxury. But I can't imagine having an 8 year old and a 5 year old in the car and spending the night in the same car!
I've been poor in college. We've ALL been poor in college. I know how to live frugally. But I've never gone through a Great Depression before!
I've heard my grandma talk about the Great Depression. Didn't sound like a bowl of cherries to me. Nobody had money, and food was hard to find.
Will Korea be like this, too? Korea is a much smaller country than the United States. This makes me believe that South Korea will bounce back faster than the United States. America is so big that there will be a lot of suffering involved and a lot of poor people living on the streets. But will Korea be like that, too? Sometimes I think "yeah right," but seriously, will Korea be like that, too?!
I'm actually really scared...
My main concern
I'm mainly worried about how well South Korea will handle this economic crisis that will most likely occur in the next few days.
Many people can't even imagine there would be a crash. "Impossible," they say. But I say it's very very probable. Call me crazy all you want. But it is very probable IMHO.
Watch this documentary to the end and tell me you can't say there is no resemblance to that video and what we are going through RIGHT NOW in our lives. History repeats itself and I'm frankly freaking out now.
