[quote=Anonymous]I think people are changing where they spend their money. The real estate market has definitely slowed down, and consumer spending is either flat or declining depending on category. I don’t see as many homes under renovation in my neighborhood, or new cars. Retailers are not feeling good about this Christmas and that includes luxury retailers. We’re fortunate enough to not have our income affected yet. For my own personal spending we’ve cut back on goods and are cooking more at home, and have canceled planned renovations, but we are still spending on family experiences like travel and Cox Farms. Even stepped up fitness spending, more of an escape from daily life and a guard against a healthcare hellscape than anything else. [/quote]
