Subject: what to do when apples go bad...
> Hi Ben,
>
> Yesterday, I read in the New York Times a
> forecast that 165,000 jobs will be lost over the
> next two years... in New York city alone.
>
> If that's happening in the Big Apple, what is
> job security elsewhere like?
>
> I know how painful job loss can have on a
> family. Yes... I may have just been a little kid at
> the time of the last Great Depression, but I
> remember the struggles vividly. You see, my
> dad lost his job in Vaudeville, and to make
> ends meet for our family, he resorted to
> selling linoleum door-to-door. Sometimes I'd
> even tag along.
>
> I remember one day in particular. My Dad and
> I had visited the home of a lady who
> desperately wanted to have a new linoleum
> floor but didn't have enough money to pay for
> it. Her little boy,who stood at her side, piped up
> and said, "Mom! It's OK, I've got some money
> in my piggy bank!"
>
> Before I knew it, that kid's piggy bank was in
> a million little pieces on the floor and he
> picked up every single cent he had ever saved
> and handed it to his Mom. As I stood on the
> porch I started to bawl my eyes out - so
> saddened by what I had just seen. I'll always
> remember this day, because it became a life
> lesson I won't ever forget.
>
> The future... our children... shouldn't ever be
> compromised. In fact, I don't ever want to see
> another child's piggy bank shattered because
> of hard times. These tough times DO NOT
> have to cost your kids' future.
>
> There IS a way to make it through. But the New
> York Times isn't going to tell you that.
