Heard from the Street: Glendale,Ca. - 03/19/09

New Series - Heard from the Street - Glendale, Ca.

Introduction

The "Heard from the Street" series will represent short interviews regarding what Main Street is thinking. The only question I will ask is, How are you coping with the changing economy? Since I am currently in a position that allows me to talk to 100's of poeple on the street each week through out the Los Angeles county area my belief is that readers might benefit from some of their insight.

Retired Veteran: Walking alittle slowly toward the store Dave has seen alot of crisis in his life. He currently has a liver transplant and is waiting for a kidney transplant courtesy of VA hospital. His strategy for coping with the current economic changes is to live within his means. Something he has done all his life. Upbeat and with a small smile he tries to maintain a positive attitude and is happy to see each day as it comes.

Comments
Dave did not appear to be a rich man in dress or manner but he clearly has the right idea.
