I know that a lot of people are suffering and I don't mean this to sound heartless but is there anything GOOD to come out of this financial wake-up call?
1) I've heard that a lot of men, for example engineers working in the car industry and other manufacturing industries are now considering going into teaching instead. Kids in schools could end up with more male role models who have experience of other work and life, which has got to be a good thing.
2) For years now we've had enormous car parks of thousands of new cars that no-one wants to buy. Perhaps this will now stop. (Also encouraged by new non polluting hydrogen-driven car shown on Top Gear last night).
3) Sometimes it feels as if there are far too many people involved in pushing money around, when we're crying out for people to do more meaningful jobs like social workers, teachers, nurses. How many banks do we really need?
4) Generally people seem to be thinking before they put something on their credit card. Isn't this a good thing?
A few (probably naive) thoughts anyway ... Anyone got any more?
