A look back....

One year ago today my company collapsed. I was faced with the possible need to go job-hunting in a flooded market, go on public assistance or, in the most extreme case, return to the US in ignominy.

Now the company's back on its feet, doing good business. I have rebuilt my depleted savings and been able to add to it, and learned the value of living within one's means. Awesome.
