Hi all,

Some interesting data from my golf game today.

I played with two gals one in her 60's and one in her 40's. The gal in her 60's said her husband was planning on retiring next year (65) but with their stock market loss the plan has been canceled. This person has worked all his life as a professional, as he heads up insurance purchasing for the largest private corporation in the US.

The gal that is in her 40's said around 90% of their friends are out of work - all professionals - some of which have been out for a year.

Looks like things are starting to get sticky here in the western suburbs of Minneapolis.

Joan
