There is no doubt that things are changing in America today. We’ve had one of the worst recessions in decades. Check out Boston.com’s "Scenes from the recession". For better or worse, things are happening in America today. This brings up an interesting question… are you taking notes? What exactly do I mean by this? It’s quite simple really, just write in a journal once every couple of nights regarding the economy. Things like how the stocks are doing, what people are protesting, what Obama’s doing. This recession is one of the worst in history, but writing about it now, and your experiences now, could pay off in the future. You could publish your journal, or perhaps sell it to a historian down the road and make a decent amount of money. Or heck, it would just be really cool to let your grandchildren take it to class one day for a school project.
It’s something to consider, even though it’s not the most joyful thing to talk about.
