[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]A lot of the white collar jobs that are disappearing won’t be coming back. All most everyone needs to adjust to a lower standard of living. [/quote] This 100%! We went from over $200k a year between my husband and myself to about $50k (and that’s generous) with two job losses. We have masters degrees and good contacting jobs, late 40s. ACA kills us every month to write a $1,500 check to cover our family of 4 and no prospects in sight for FT work so we are making do with two PT jobs. We still feel fortunate to have not been in debt when it happened but each month we get a little closer and one big event will do us in. We are like most every professional person that didn’t see this coming. Adjusting to a lower standard of living and not burying our head in the sand has been the only thing we feel we have control over. [/quote]
