I would like to hear your stories, positive or negative about if and how these low oil prices are effecting your daily life.
I am sure many of you are enjoying the low gasoline prices.
I on the other hand have a company truck with a gas card that I run with....so no big advantage to me.
My stock portfolio took a 6% dive recently.
My company sponsored pension plan must be heavy heavy resource based as it has lost nearly 2% of its gross value..
I am sure these will claw their way back up over time.
This month I have had two machine orders cancelled by customers who work mainly in the Bakken oil field....means I am now trying to make up a shortfall of $30,000.00 in lost commissions.
Don't get me wrong, life is still pretty good, I am a lucky guy to live where I live and am healthy, safe and warm, just wondering if anybody else has some stories. good or bad. (good would be great!!!! I could use something to cheer me up!
) Yes ..I see I have used effected over affected.
