I have a grandchild entering college,a couple in high school,and a couple in middle school.

I fear for their future.

My youngest is 6.. I question myself as to what I am going to do to try and leave things better than they where given to me.

My son will be six the end of September, my oldest daughter will be three the end of August, and my baby girl will be one mid September (insert Christmas break joke here). I’m quite frightened.

I fear for them too and my nieces and nephews some of whom voted for that bastard

I have three children in college and one in high school. I have one grandchild in college and three entering college and one in high school.

I share your fear.

Yet every day I read Goldman Sachs reports that are uniformly optimistic. For example, Goldman Sachs is downplaying the significance of the 3% drop in the first quarter GDP and predicting 2+ percent increase in the second quarter and for the year.

They have been doing this since the onset of the great recession. I am fully in Donald Trump's camp but the question for me is not whether but when. Many have gone broke betting against Goldman Sachs, many have gone broke trying to time the market and I think the same caution applies in trying to time the reckoning.

I hope Goldman Sachs is right and Trump was wrong but I do not know the answer to that any more than I know which one of them is more arrogant.

I have one just graduated from college, no job prospects, her dad is unemployed again after a 2 year search from the last layoff, and Mom has 3 part time jobs...they are losing everything!

One is a senior in high school, another starting middle school...

I can not imagine their lives...or even the next few of mine that might be left.

Right there with you friend. I just wish I had some sage calming advice. Hell, I wish someone had some for me.
