Do you think your financial stats will be better or worse or the same next year?

New year is coming soon. I hope everybody enjoyed your life in 2008 and made lots of money! I wish all of you make bigger money in 2009! For the coming year, I feel I will be doing a little bit better (more income). What's your forecast about your year of 2009? Will you make more money or less or the same?

It's not all about how much money we make. We also have to consider how much money we spend. 2008 has not been a great year for me. Now that I look back over the year I see that I made a respectable amount of money, but for some reason I still have debt that I can't pay. Maybe if I analyze where the money went I can get more control for 2009.

yes, expenses and income works together to get a result. For me, I cut my expenses 2 years ago, so, during these 2 years, even with lower income, I don't feel that much harsh.

I'm really hoping next year will be a better year for us... right now we are fighting forecloser but our payments went from $1700 a month to $600 so with all that extra money we are saving. we are putting it into a savings account and if we lose.. then we will have money for a down payment on a new house... but if we WIN then we will get to keep this house for pretty much nothing.. i think our payments will be $200 something?... and if we do win.. with the market being so low we still might buy another house. which would be great in the long run.. also, hopefully next year i'll be doing some small side job taking photos since i'll be getting a dslr soon. So i really, really hope next year will be better for us money wise. i surely hope it doesn't get any worse.

I agree... It's not a bad idea to plan a new house in current low

I cannot foretell my incoming money in 2009 but I was hoping for good and more blessings to come to us next year. The stability of financial status as of now is hard to predict especially the unstable economy of the country. By God's Blessings we live and hope.
