Walletpop and the Huffington Post talk about How We're Living Now
Filed under: Extracurriculars
These times are historic, painful, but historic. And they provide an opportunity for us to grow stronger as individuals and as a country. That's why Walletpop is getting together with our friends at the Huffington Post Living section to hold a panel in New York City on June 22nd, to talk about How We're Living Now: Welcome to the New Economy.
The panel was, of course, inspired by these times and how everything is changing, quickly. Walletpopper Bruce Watson's post, earlier this month, asking Is the Recession Making Us Better People? also falls in line with some of the topics we're going to discuss.
Below is a complete outline of the discussion. We hope to have a video up next week, after the panel, of highlights and interviews with guests and panelists. And we would like to give a WalletPop shout-out to our wine sponsor, Israeli Wine Direct, for providing yumming delicious red wine, from Israel!, that I can't wait to try, having learned how to dive in Tel Aviv, and I remember the food as deeeee-licious! I was, unfortunately, too young for the wine...

Tips for Becoming Pre-Qualified for a Home Loan
To buy any real estate, many real estate agents and sellers only accept offers from buyers who have pre-qualified for a home loan or have cash available. It is uncommon that someone has sufficient money to purchase a new home without some kind of financing required.

One of the ways we are living now in the 'new economy,' doesn't make us better people -- many are HOARDING.
Add to the economic woes the fact the the World Health Organization last week officially recognized the swine flu as a pandemic and the hoarding is increasing even more. What are people hoarding? Ethic Soup blog says it's everything from cash and gold to guns and ammo -- one gun shop said assault rifles are back-ordered for seven months. When people become hoarders, then they feel they must protect their loot by packing heat. They're also hoarding cartons of cigarettes and booze, and the rich are worried about not being able to get their delicacies -- Roquefort cheese (now $60 a pound because of new tariffs), foie gras and French chocolates. Ethic Soup has a good article at:
