anybody else freak out about this? this past week, especially in the USA, there has been such a panic about the fiscal cliff, taxes are going up on us lower/middle income people even though they said they weren't, and everything is getting more expensive ... milk, eggs, school tuition, etc etc etc. I am worried bc my fiance has a job, but I only work part time ... his job does reviews twice a year and he can either be promoted or let go so it is really stressful ... if he lost his job, I wouldn't have health insurance and also probably could not finish school as I'd have to go to work full time ...
I am letting my mind run away with me but it's all over the news and freaking me out every day. I am terrified he'll get let go. He has his next review in February and he does ok, but it is a very competitive job and he has a year to be promoted or that's it.
Eek. I shouldn't stress, nothing I can do about it and nothing bad has happened yet. But I am.
Anybody else stressing about the economy?
