The Upside of Down

Periodically, I like to make comments related to topics not directly computer related. This post is one of those.

The old adage, 'What goes up must come down' is also true in reverse. I've lived long enough to know that most things are cyclical. The weather (global warming -I'm pretty ancient!), boom-bust cycles... This present blip, regardless of the degree will cycle back up again in due course.
The real truth is, a dip in the economy simply represents OPPORTUNITY. Many will benefit hugely, others, sadly, will get hurt. Some things remain the same -those who've stayed out of the debt trap and have cash will seize the day, those who have over extended will pay the price. Cash is pretty much always king. Stay liquid and debt free. Be opportunist with money that you have earmarked for exactly these occasions and enjoy. Look for ways to expand by offering service and value and grow your business. Don't follow the crowd -the majority are seldom right.

Take care,
John
