It's just that these numbers don't make me feel any better about the economy or my personal financial situation. Maybe I should feel better, but I don't. I generally feel pessimistic, and these numbers don't change that. permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 2 child comments replies: [–] fukhueson@lemmy.world [S] 0 points 2 years ago Well, I'm sorry to hear that.
