Default What is your biggest fear?

Given the press coverage of the credit crunch/slow down in the US economy/worries about the UK economy blah blah blah - what do you worry about the most? Is it that the fear will become a self fulfilling prophesy, or that the bank won't support you anymore? Or is it that your customers will start to see your product or service as a luxury they can lose rather than something they don't want to be without?

Or do you think there is nothing to worry about at all? Has business never been better for you despite what others are saying?

Will I ever stop with the questions? Or will I just go on forever?

Hold on tight and sail through it, things are certainly looking grim (though I haven't been effected (yet!)) but they will pick up again by the end of 2010. So they say.

My biggest fear is having poor health and not having the ability to laugh or have fun

Well, why not send as many Christmas ecards as you like for only £5.99, save a fortune, put your company name on the message and be green at the same time

Just make sure that you can repay any debt owed to the banks and you are smiling, the businesses that are worried are those that owe more than they can repay, they are in for a hard ride.

Personally no biggest fear, love to do more than I do but you can only do so much and besides I like sleeping.

My biggest fear is for my nephew, he is 17, what sort of crippled economy are we going to hand him? How will he afford to buy a home or pay for a pension? How could he ever get the funding to start a business? What will this crunch do to change how we currently live and work?

Oops asking questions is catching.
