The financial crisis has not impacted our family at this stage.
Both of us are in industries where our jobs can be affected on the economy - I work for a major bank and dh is in the agricultural industry. At this stage we are both safe.
We will benefit from the government bonus as we both earn less than $80k p.a. and we fortunately sold our second house earlier this year, so we have no mortgage.
The downside is our savings are not earning very much interest due to the lower mortgage rates and our share portfolio was affected, but overall this makes very little difference to our overall financial position.
