Should I be worried? With the continual bad news in the housing market, rising cost of oil, food, and unemployment rates is that something that we should be concerned about? As a soon to be College graduate (3 more years +time for grad school, fingerscrossed) should I be worried about the job market? UT's tuition rate has risen by 40%, add that with increased cost in food, and housing(even tho every where else housing price has fallen), what should I expect?
Vote for Ron Paul to save the economy. That, and get into manufacturing. Your dollars might not be worth much, but the industry is doing really well, and you'll be able to get a job.
i graduated right after 9/11. it sucked hard. i couldn't find anything. best stay in school. maybe do some internships in the summer and see if they leads to a fulltime offer.
The final speculative phase to the Moon has not transpired as of yet. So everything is holding fine for now and you are okay. After some years however, you will need to carry a gun when you walk outside.
Well, the general thinking right now is that the economy should start getting better end of 08 or 09. Plus, the job market, especially in the South, is still doing pretty well. Corporate profits, at least right now, are still pretty decent, and in some cases, spectacular. This leads to the job market staying pretty good. Also, while we *might* go into recession, we probably won't. More of a "slowdown" of growth than a full recession. My thinking is that things are never quite as good, or ever quite as bad as the media makes it out to be.
I am also considering buying a house this summer but I'm having double thoughts due to the state of economy. Everything is so expensive now!! I remember 99 cents per gallon for gas.

If you're sure about your job future, and you're not buying in a bubble area, do it. Real estate and other investments with intrinsic value do better in a recession or slow down.
the only thing we have to fear is fear itself everybody just pour out your bank account and buy stuff! That would stimulate and save the economy. Buy and save.
Yeah, let's just do away with the Federal Reserve in the middle of a recession. My advice is just to be well-educated. You're probably going to change careers a few times; you'll want to have knowledge you can use in many situations for the rest of your life.
inflation is starting to be a little concerning, but apparently the fed is more worried about growth.... we shall see.
