As the sole bread winner with a wife, two boys and a mortgage it has been somewhat scary.  What I have learned is that there is no reason to trust corporate America or assume they will support you.  I feel this economic downturn will make many young professionals realize it is best to rely on themselves, become independent either as contractors or by creating their own companies.  This is what I am working toward.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;With your experience, knowledge and talent, now is the time to build your own empire, not wait to fill the coffers of some corporation that has no loyalty to you, no matter how much you are loyal to them.  You should be creating your own online tech-webzine-streaming-news, and I am looking forward to tuning in.&lt;/p&gt;</description><dc:creator xmlns:dc="http://purl.org/dc/elements/1.1/">pazu16</dc:creator><pubDate>Thu, 13 Aug 2009 22:08:55 -0000</pubDate></item></channel></rss>
