Markets go up. Markets go down. Position yourselves to take the opportunities each present. Money is made going up AND going down. Layoffs happen during either, but more so in a down market.
This is all you need to understand to know what's around the corner.
No matter what, debt is what paralyzes you in any situation. If you have to be in debt, then you've made your decision to also live in fear when the market collapses.
They key is to hold little to no debt and make money on the way up and on the way down.
Good luck, kids, its going to be a rough ride in this rollercoaster in 2019.
