I've been watching the news and other related venues where they discuss the failing employment situation in this nation of ours. In reality, the current rate as of this date in Wyoming is 3.2% up to 9.6% in Michigan. I'm sure this number, as reported by CNNMoney.com, does not take into consideration people who have been refused unemployment benefits and those that have used them all up. These numbers are very hard to accurately track. Adding a few more percent to the higher total would mean that at least 85% of the country is still working. I'm trying to be positive here folks! Now to the point I'm trying to make about employment. What fields are safe to go into? Well there's food service (gotta eat) and health service (ate too much?) to name just 2. How many people work for the golden arches this year as compared to last and how many of those swore that's the last place they would ever work!
There is another field that is worth a serious look, banking and finance! I know what your going to say about failures and frauds and mismanagement but stop and take a look. What do you see? I mean take a third person serious look and what you should see are opportunities! The failures had a reason(s), the frauds had perpetrators and the mismanagement had mis-managers identified and singled out as part of corporate cleansing. What else do most of them have in common? Government oversight for those that opted for bailout funds. What happened when these employees were routed out that failed to perform? Employment opportunities opened up across the board and some of the best positions were investment banker jobs and auditors. These are prime positions for bright motivated people who are looking to be successful in today's financial market. You can't rebuild a nation's finances without financial people. If you have a decent finance background or training check into it. It pays to be smart!
