I only buy what I can't do without right now. I'm keeping it basic and low cost when I can.

I'm a government employee.  My job is recession and even depression-proof!  But talk to me again in eight months when I retired.

From what I read in the financial news, we got about 4 months to go for a strong turn around.

As a shop owner, livestock sales are way down.  Dry goods are still keeping the doors open, but some weeks I sell more in crickets than saltwater fish.
