Finding Love Online in a Recession

Recession, dating, jobs . .

It's kind of funny the types of things- like dating- that increase when funds decrease. I read that during the great depression, drinking and outings were up. I guess people wanted diversion even if they couldn't afford it.

Having said that, here is a comment to the jobless, since we're also talking about being more creative during this economic slump, Why not think outside the box of looking to work for another in the first place?

I'm rather amazed that there are plenty of skill sets that are for whatever reason not "conventional" enough to be taught in schools, but the mastery of which would lead to more autonomy.

Most of us are trained to be employees- nothing wrong with that, but I'm convinced that thinking that way is a kind of tunnel vision that keeps many from learning skills that wold allow them to carve out there own path to income.

One of them is as close as the computer in front of you. For the first time in history, we are 3 feet in front of the world, yet few learn how to use it in a way to render 1) value to others and 2)income for themselves.
