Agreed. I don't think any of my friends considered their jobs "predictable and secure" when they started. And in many cases the huge bonuses they received last year wil cushion the fall. Let's just hope they haven't become to accustomed to

I've heard about "investing in a mutual fund" a million times and I am surprised these seasoned professionals advised googlers to do that. With enough humility, hard work and emotional control you have a better chance of beating the market.

It probably set in when I went to a conference for journalism related professionals. Everyone was scratching their heads and asking how the hell do we make money from this new new media. For once I was surrounded by non-entrepreneurs asking
