Are you better off than you were four years ago?

Well since the company I worked for (22 years) is enjoying the tax benefits of sending our jobs overseas, I'm out of work.
I guess I'd have to say no.

In my case, I feel it is worse than 4 years ago.

This thread may not last long since politics is at it's heart.

I'm much better off than I was 4 years ago...but I'm young, and still settling into something I can call a career.

I bet it will last if the responses are civil and not political. I hope it does, because I would be interested in seeing the results.

Financially? No. My annual income is less than my monthly income was four years ago. On the other hand, I don't get emergency pages at 2 a.m. and never drive anywhere unless I want to, so $4/gallon fuel doesn't mean much to me.

I'm retired now.
