An overview discussion by Vivian of what's happening in our current financial markets and its impact on us.
In Australia, we have not actually experienced a recession for over 20 years."Recession, in terms of the financial markets, happens usually in a cycle - every 7 to 10 years.""Whenever there is growth, there will always be recession."
"Recession isn't really a good or bad thing but it is just how the money system goes. It's made up of ups and downs, and we're just experiencing one of the downs."
What can we do to get our house in order in terms of our finances?
"The people who are riding this wave with resilience are the ones who were already investing in their personal development and growth and are actually doing really well at this time."
