A new dawn and an empty brain here. Well, it’s not totally empty; it’s focused on this morning’s stock market. The technical sector is going crazy, as it has for weeks. The market is excited about AI and its impact on our future.
I’m non-technical, understanding little about what drives the larger economy. I do know that we so-called middle-classers constantly pay rising prices for nearly everything and that we all feel the squeeze. The market suggests that AI technology will improve the economy, and maybe so, but prices will stay high to cover “value-added” charges.
So, my personal economic strategy is to keep working part-time. Besides enjoying the welcome factor of gaining social interaction, working adds extra money and can reduce drawing from reserves.
Dear Friends, Unending concerns about the future and what that might bring. Diana
