Re: [FairfieldLife] Get Lucky!

Re: [FairfieldLife] Get Lucky!
Well like I said it depends on who you are, age, health etc. Take my mother -
86, in great health, and her mortgage is paid off - one mill would last her the
rest of her life I expect with no problem.

Re: [FairfieldLife] Get Lucky!
Given that a sandwich for lunch at a restaurant is at least $8 when it was $5 a few short years ago people are more and more feeling the pinch. Even Subway advertises their sandwiches at only $6 as if it is a great deal at that price when they were only $2.99 a few years back. There's been a round of raising the minimum wage with claims that it would cause places to raise their prices only a few cents. But those outfits don't do that, they'll just raise it a dollar instead. Of course minimum wage jobs aren't supposed to be a career. They're supposed to be supplemental jobs, often part-time, to do while going to school or waiting for an opening in your field. At that back in the day you could still rent a place to live, buy a car, dine out and enjoy a movie out now and then on a minimum wage job. No more, folks bought monster homes and then decided oh god, I better raise my prices to pay for this place. It's price increases that trickle down, not money.

Re: [FairfieldLife] Get Lucky!
A lot of older folks blew their retirement this century trying to stay in their homes. Many felt that the recessions would go away since they are cyclical and what savings they had would start growing again. And they could easily sell their homes and get their equity out. We know that didn't happen. Also many figured they'd just keep working until they were 72. But if they lost their job it often meant they wouldn't be able to find another one. This didn't happen back when experience was valued. If you ask me the whole economic scene is upside down. We seem to have silent austerity in the US.

[FairfieldLife] Get Lucky
No, you dirty-minded bunch...this is *not* Turq rapping about his sexual exploits in Sitges. It's just a notice for those who would be interested that there is a new Mark Knopfler album out. And it's a winner. Called Get Lucky, it's a wonderful blend of his many styles -- from blues to Celtic to folky to rock, and featuring his unique guitar and songwriting skills. As to the latter, he's still one of the best *storytellers* in the songwriting business. I've only heard it once now and so don't really have faves yet, but on first listen several songs stood out for me, like Border Reiver, Before Gas And TV, Cleaning My Gun, Get Lucky, So Far From The Clyde, and Piper To The End. For those who are interested in the recording process, you'll probably want to pick up the edition of this album with the bonus DVD. Mark and partner Chuck Ainlay take you on a tour of their new studio. It beat out Abbey Road for the Best Recording Studio Of The Year award. It's an audio nerd's wet dream, and it's all analog. Thus the warm sound of the albums recorded there. Listen to the album, order it:e http://www.markknopfler.com/music/discography/cd/mk_SoloDetails.aspx?cat=SoloalbumId=a105dc42-cab1-4f8e-a687-09c0640fa901 Interview 1: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5ZfhFlngVA4 Interview 2: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LqefOE6sFac Get Lucky: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yZyaMWxuOog Border Reiver: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dzqNSAbE7Fo Piper To The End: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZCAtVJSNdQE
