recession proof..

[dey know yayo]

healthcare wages are going to tank, are you guys nuts?

 

[rhythmentality]

Certain departments in the video gaming industry are recession-proof.

Consider the developer studios not recession-proof one bit at all.

eNPHAN- gold preserves purchasing power. and it isn't consumed so it doesn't suffer demand destruction. if the civilized world were coming to an end,sure, guns, ammunition, bread, butter would be key. but it's not. if you want to learn about why gold is a great investment and the only way to preserveyour purchasing power in the midst of a federal reserve with $2 trillion of liabilities on its balance sheet ALREADY, feel free to ask me. gold serves apruposes the same way money does. it is a unit of wealth, and a medium of exchange. the fact that gold has no inherent utility is what makes it recession proofidiot.

firstborn is right, law is always safe and won't suffer wage contraction llike healtchare.

Video Games is good but its far from recession proof. That and after Holidays, video game companies take hits. If you're a small development company time to say good bye.

[h1]Sony Slash 8,000 Jobs[/h1]

What economic crisis? This economic crisis. Sony just announced that 8,000 employees are to be given the *!*%, courtesy of a round of cost-cutting aimed at stemming the worst losses of the economic crisis.

The 8,000 will be let go by March 2010, and all come from the company's electronics division, which has 160,000 workers in total. There's nothing more specific than that at the moment, but if the PlayStation group escaped unscathed we'd be mighty surprised.

What? they used a Arrested development scene?

 

[nostrandave68]

Government jobs are the ONLY jobs recession proof, it takes an act from Congress to lay off workers.... I work for the Food & Drug Administration btw butim a part time student. I even got a 72cent pay raise starting Jan 15th. Government jobs are the greatest.

when a fiat currency loses purchasing power, gold shows GREAT resilience in both nominal and real terms. nominal terms because gold's limited in supply andcannot be "created" like fiat currency and in real terms because people will flock to gold when their fiat currency loses value.

central banks own 15% of all the gold ever mined. i doubt theyre going to "dump" it all. in fact, all of them are trying to buy MORE.

gold is the one item that has little utility outside of store of value. EVERYTHING else has a lot of use in industry or consumption or this or that, but golddoesn't. that is why it has inherent monetary utility.

if there's a state of emergency in which there is no monetary order and there is no standard of currency in the entire world, sure, gold would not have anyutility because the dollars or pounds or euros or yen it's measure in in nominal terms would not be used. but that's not hte case, idiot. the worldisn't coming to an end. monetary systems are CONGLOMERATING, not diverging.

when the world comes to an end, i'll be ready with guns and food. i'll have a lot more of it than you because i made a lot more money in gold while youbought consumption-nbased commodities that are going to suffer demand destruciton in real terms.

i was down in atl last week and i went to this spot that had me thinking like damn i want one of these

Planet Smoothie. I think if i could get one of those in my area, folks would be there everyday like its a Dunkin Donus. Ill put it near my gym too.

enphan, when the dollar is weak, people do not flock to oil and food and guns. they flock to gold.

when the entire world's governments are collapsing, that's when they flock to oil and food and guns.

supply/demand, my friend. learn a little bit of that before you ever reply again.

 

[dey know yayo]

money =/= dollar.

money = unit of currency, means of exchange, store of value.
dollar = type of money that is weakening.
gold = type of money that gains when nominal fiat currencies (like dollar) weaken.

gold has a lust because it has little industrial use. thus, it is a perfect candidate for money because people have no real demand for it for anything. whenyou have hyperinflation, the paper currency is printed on suddenly has demand in use for starting fireplaces (eg weimar republic). gold is different, it haslittle value in industry or consumption. which is why humans have a lust for gold. it's not just some random thing everyone agreed on. there is logicbehind it.

me: gold and government are safe in recession proof.
you: gold's is not safe in recessions worth is based upon people liking shiny objects
me: i agree with the only point you're making, but you're an idiot
you: idiot?, if the world comes to an end people no longer think gold looks cool, no one will use gold
me: no ++!*, btu the world isn't coming to an end and we're talking about safety in this current recession here salt and anger.
you: *not quite a form of english* english used at a level i cant understand, followed by

and various google image search results

Ahhh. Naw, Miami is in desperate need of nurses. Some schools in the state are wanting to lower academic standards to increase the amount of nurses.


If you are in Allied Health i.e. PT, OT, SP, Nursing, there are always people hiring down here.

 

[dlo13]

FDIC is hiring like mad right now...

They pretty much only want dudes with an MBA and 10-15 years in banking, though...

The insurance industry is relatively stable. Avoid the Life/Health side and look into Property/Casualty companies, though...

 

[dey know yayo]

eNPHAN, you still make 0 sense. gold is not just a shiny object. there is a reason civilizations throughout history have used it as currency.

obama's going to massively expand infrastructure spending, govt jobs will definitely be there.

insurers are close to insolvency.

 

[yungmatt]

Of course
