Timing

Well….

As I said in my last post, I have completed everything I can do, the school as confirmed they have all my paperwork and are reviewing and doing all the other things they do. During the past few days I have really started to wonder if now is the right time to be going back school. I ask that because of what has been happening to our economy. I believe my job is relatively secure, although the short term is weak (we are laying off some hourly workforce), the mid and long term look OK. However what is the job market going to look like when I graduate in 18 months? Will my company be able to promote me or will I find a different job to offset the expenses I have accumulated? If the answers are no, then do I want to saddle myself with debt without seeing a fair chance at a potential upside? I guess this is the way banks and other financial intuitions might be feeling as well, do they want to loan money out without having a good feeling that as to what might happen in the future. Or is it that nobody wants to take the money (companies/individuals) because they are not sure what the future holds so they do not want to increase their debt load. Thankfully, I can place my trust in The Lord and not in the wisdom of man or the security of the financial markets.
