Election

Well, finally the big day is here. America has a new president. Admittedly, this guy is wading into an enormous mess, and it would be completely unreasonable to expect him to wave some sort of magic wand and make it go away by next year. Nobody could do that. Chances are that things are going to stay uncomfortable for all of us for perhaps years to come.

What I have been continually reminded of in the days leading up to the election is that ultimately it doesn't matter who wins because they aren't going to make all your problems go away. The only person who can do that is you. It is up to you to take charge of your life. It is up to you to become wealthy. It is up to you to do the things you need to do to protect yourself from the recession. You are responsible for your life, not some politician. And you have the power to make it all happen, just as long as you believe in yourself.
