I agree. Its not going to be good. My main concern is staying employed for that whole period of time. As long as I can stay employed, I think I can come out on top, since people currently employed get hired easier than people who get laid off, ironically. I don't expect the economy to ever "return to normalcy." Our economy is currently diabetic and we are pumping it full of insulin to offset the years of sugar we pumped into it last decade. It may even out after a REALLY long time...everything does eventually. But until then things are going to be rocky.
