When George and I have caught up on everything that's happened in the day since we've last spoken, we usually turn to current events/history. I swear we could talk about this indefinately or at least on a long car trip. Last night's topic was: Is it 1929 again? I heard on NPR early this morning that 28% of American's believe we're in a Depression.
The mood on the train home from Manhattan is grim. I know for a fact there are a LOT of finance guys on my train and they are scared, really scared. I bet they wish now they'd saved a lot more instead of buying a fancy car or a second vacation home. But much like the Roaring 20s people, they lived in the moment and put EVERYTHING on the line.
