- This morning I had been dreading writing a blurb and dealing with an unrelated issue that required immediate attention. But then both problems were solved for me without my needing to lift a finger. That’s two totally unexpected gifts from the Universe on the same day. Love, love, love that!
- I checked on my 401(k) today, and it was doing fine. That’s good. But I don’t like the way the economy’s looking. While no expert on anything to do with investing, I can read, and all I seem to read about these days is trouble: layoffs, businesses closing, the U.S.’s unsustainable debt, rising oil prices, rising interest rates, farmers facing massive losses, shakiness in the private credit industry, and so forth. I figure that, should it all go south, my 401(k) will recover before I retire, so maybe I don’t need to worry about that right now (and it’s not like I have a ton of money in there anyway, TBH). But what about the shorter term? Are there things I should be worrying about? Things I ought to do to prepare? Something to consider.
