Are we on our way to an actual depression (as opposed to the Great Recession)? Is now the time to put that in the market and make it grow? Write down my life experiences on economic downturns for the future benefit of my grandchildren. My next tendency is to try to figure out how I can benefit from the situation.

My grown kids are also savers and I have high hopes that the grandchildren will follow their example. Helping the parents teach my grandchildren to save is an ongoing project of mine. Trepidation about having the grand-kids open a savings account. Both are now old enough to open a bank savings account.

I wanted a place for our family to gather – adult children and grandchildren along with us. I scouted nationwide, looking for a likely spot to buy – wanting an area that had enough attractions to rent well, was someplace we would enjoy, and which was close enough to home to make it accessible for weekend trips for all of us.
