Was there a worse life handicap than graduating during the 2008

I had a multimillion dollar client stop work and back out of a contract.

by 2009 they came back though, so nothing was lost except time.

also I bought 2 vehicles in 08-09. Car companies were collapsing and cars were getting repo'd all over so I got a fullsize dodge ram for half of book value and a brand new Avenger for $10k.

that was also the year they were giving away free dodge avengers to anyone that bought a new Ram. I didn't do that deal, but it was pretty sweet.

My friend lost his dog in a tragic blimp accident.

>younger kids than me are stupid as hell.

Even people older than me are just as dumb. I swear to god people can't even do basic shit.

I by no means think I am a genius since my lazy ass is working at grocery store while half assing college. *sigh*

i graduated from college in 2002. i had no idea what i was doing, i struggled a lot to get interviews and i had no idea what i doing in interviews. 6 months after i graduated i finally had a job.

by 2008, i was working at an investment firm. after Lehma, the firm bailed out their money market funds, losing over $500m. 1/4 of the company was laid off.

i wasn't laid off, but i could see that it wasn't long - almost everyone in my group was canned. i went to graduate school, i finished in 2010. i had 2 interviews where the companies stopped all hiring. i moved back in with my parents, and basically restarted my life.

It's not funny.
He got caught up in one of the mooring lines and was dragged for miles until he hit an Arby's billboard and died on impact.

I can never enjoy another Beef N' Cheddar.
Even if they do go back to 3 for $5.
The worst part is, they left the board a mess because the company said it looked like barbecue sauce from a distance anyway.

Studies have shown that starting work during a recession impacts the person many years after graduation and overall lifetime earnings are lower
