Yahoo Finance article on job situation back in the US

I couldn't think of a good title for this post. Maybe I'll change it later, but anyway, saw this article on Yahoo Finance and thought that...well, I thought a couple things. One, I thought that I shouldn't complain that not everything is going the way I hoped here in K-land, and two, that maybe it's a bad time to bash on the idea of having dreams. 

Here's the article: Out of Work, Out of Benefits, and Running Out of Options

On the other hand...maybe I do have as much reason to be as frustrated as the person in the article (or those commenting on the article). I don't know. It hasn't helped me in the past to worry about how other people are managing with their lives...even if they were better off than me. I've just got to keep trying the best I can. Perhaps it behooves me to pursue a dream, even if it's never realized. 

In the meantime, it seems I'm doing alright here. I've just noticed my students aren't asking me anymore when I'm going home to the US. 

We'll, that's work. Now if I could get my life outside of work (and outside of financial planning) sorted out... Always seems part of what I need is always somewhere else, out of reach.
