Mind,

Your number actually looks pretty good. In great Boston area, I have seen decent consultants willing to work for 50-60% less than they used to make in IT fields.

And in drug discovery fields, things are not that better. Plenty of guys who got laid off are applying for jobs in Harvard and MIT for less than 50% they used to make. And the bad part is that there are so many people applying for so few positions that most of them won't even get it.

BTW, I think a decent trading opportunity is coming in the next 2-3 weeks after DOW and S&P touch the Oct. 02 low. A 15% gain is quite reasonable before we march toward Dow 5800.

larry!
