“In today’s economy”.... Blah Blah

I get so annoyed when people say “In today’s economy”. Blah Blah…It’s the most overrated phrase for the year and people say it to make themselves seem so knowledgeable about what’s going on. What do you know about today’s economy? Do you even know what economy means? Do you know what stocks and bonds are and what the difference is? Do you know how your dollar impacts the US, let alone the world? No! You see that the price of Frosted Flakes went up and you complain about needing to go on a budget. Pick that price apart and find out why it is so high or low and where your money is going. People, wake up!! Stop using these phrases losely.
Become more knowledgeable about what’s going on today. Know what your options are for your money. Make your money work for you. Don’t keep cash around, you worked hard for it, so make sure it earns its keep. Pay yourself first. We’ve all heard that before. It’s your money. Try to understand the stock market as much as you can. It was set up so the “common” man would not understand, but don’t be “common”. Do your research and truly understand the words that are coming out of your mouth.
