Are you concerned about your financial future?
Fred Stoffer w/Hannah, Ocean
Im concerned about the short term because of the financial situation that the country is currently facing.
I think the long term will change for the better after the November elections.
Jennifer Donnelly w/Christopher & Anthony, Wayside
I am concerned because we have three children, the boys and Gabriella, and they all need an education, the cost of college had been going up and up.
I hope to afford it by the time the kids get there.
James Nulle w/Brayden, Tinton Falls
Yes, with the high cost of living in the state of New Jersey and the crashing of the stock market.
Its not just my future, but the future of state and the country.
Its scary, actually
Amanda DeJesus, Asbury Park
Yes, unfortunately, in the way of world you have to be these days.
As for me, right now Im happy, healthy and feeling free in spirit.
As for the future, Im hoping itll fall into place.
I dont think you should dwell on the negative.
You should keep a positive outlook.
Bill Huelster, Ocean
You better believe I am. Theres a lot of uncertainty in the economy; a lot of uncertainty in the world and a lot of uncertainty in the market place.
Im unemployed right now, so Im very concerned.
Nothing makes sense anymore. The older it gets the tougher it gets.
Shaundell Johnson, Neptune
Yes, Im concerned.
I think its very important for a young person like me to be financially stable.
Im trying to do that.
Lewis Palmer, Ocean
The future is now for me. Im 74 and working at Foodtown. I love my work. Best town to live in and best store to work at.
The now is good for me.
Joan Baum, Neptune
Yes, Im concerned. The way the economy is going and the upcoming presidential election. Im concerned with what the next president will do; social security.
Im not confident that its all going to be there.
Not confident at all.
Craig Deneca, Narberth, PA.
Am I concerned – yeah. None of the politicians are addressing; A. And B, were in it so deeply I think we have to bail – declare bankruptcy and walk from all the debt.
Everybody owes more then they can ever pay.
We need to wipe the slate clean.
We have politicians who have run us into debt and now they say its our problem! No way.
