Bring on the financial apocalypse if only to stop the propagation of this pointless dirge, this cacophony of crap, that seems designed only to drain all hope in these 'troubling times'. Times that, although troubling, are no worse than what mankind has faced in the past - just on this occasion we happen to be living in them.
Was James Joyce sipping champagne in the South of France on a sun-lounger when he finished Finnegan's Wake? No. He was broke, bitter and going blind. Was Vincent Van Gough financially, or more mentally sound when creating his beautiful works of art? No. He was hearing voices and cut off his own ear. Shakespeare didn't make enough money in his whole lifetime to keep himself in tights.
Think of these 'economically uncertain times' as an opportunity and not an obstacle to get creative and persue all your dreams now. There are so many gaps in the markets waiting to be plugged or areas you can force your way into. Let the stockbrokers carry on slitting their wrists and let bankers carry on being constipated lenders. Money is not the be all and end all of the world.
Surf the tsunami of fear that is taking over the media and go out and be creative. There's rarely been a better time.
