Consumers turn grim; house prices slid in Jan – Yahoo! News:

Click the above^^^ link to read this story about the consumer housing market prices turning us everyday working people grim. I don’t know man……The next president, whether it’s a white women, black man, or old white man, better have a solution for this housing, oil, and credit crisis that is driving the U.S. into another soon to be recession. Last recession was in 2002, but I predict this one to be much worse in the long run. Damn man…….I’m outtie 5000(Thats some old school shit or urban slanguage for you all not in the know).

Depressed In The A.M.

It’s late around 1:44am EST. I can’t sleep. I’m depressed, keep reading about the economy, oil prices, housing market, presidential candidates, and also receiving(Reading) bills My wife and I no longer can afford to pay, like utilities Keyspan(Heat) and Nstar (Electricity). Also other debts I owe that I’m not at liberty to discuss because I won’t.

I tell you man….. this world is going straight down the drain. I’m poor like most folks I know, and don’t know how, we as poor folks are going to survive much longer(Off of petty low wage income). Food prices are starting to become unbearable as well. Calling for take-out and going grocery shopping, to cook one nights worth of food are almost identical in cost.

Steak, fish, ground beef, and chicken are all about $5-10 dollars for a pound or more. Ordering out for a large pizza for two is about the same $10 dollars. No big difference in price. Lets not even talk about rent (That takes up %70-80 of are monthly income). I know everyone pays rent, just speaking for low income folks like myself. I don’t know man……..I’m just stressed out, tired, sick of struggling sometimes.

I use this blog to vent to the world (Nobody cares anyway) so I have no problem doing it. Grimms out.
