Great Depression 2.0.

I'm wondering what they're going to do when they shut down postal services and bank runs begin to occur.

It's coming.

We will follow Italy and close the markets and delay all monthly obligations. But they are going to need a lot more than $8B

They've been told over and over to save for a rainy day. That rainy day is here, they'll survive and hopefully learn. I hope their family and friends help them out but that's all that should be done.

LOL **** about to get so real. So many about to find out just how cruel life really is. I can't wait. Feel my pain, know what it is to feel desperation and despair.

Just sold my house last month. Havent bought a new house yet. I'm just fukkn waiting on the sidelines rubbing my hands together for some cheap real estate in the very near future.

Real estate in BC has needed a correction. Cant believe my timing. Sold at the high of highs and the market will come tumbling down.

Very likely. It's not going to be mad max but we might see 'crime' soar to very high levels.

I feel sorry for people who don't prepare, but everyone should know to have an emergency fund on hand. There are very few people who have to live paycheck to paycheck. Most people with no savings could have savings if they lived the right way.

That's what happens when you're not self employed and let your life be dictated by someone else.

Shouldn't have taken this to realise.

There is no question that this will cause a depression. Possibly even worse than the one we saw in the 1920s. Tour is over boys. Time to lay down and decompose.

This is what i was just posting about in the other thread. All these shut downs to save the elderly, but I think it's going to put a huge strain on the younger population who don't have money in the bank to survive going without a couple pay checks or losing their jobs completely. Seems like the government might be sacrificing the young to spare the old.

The government is comprised of old people, ofcourse they're going to do what's in their best interest.
