What are they saying on CNN Money about jobs?
 

 

jobs report data 090613

Great news! People are being hired! In an article from CNNMoney.com it states that the Department of Labor said on Friday that 169,000 jobs were added in August by the US economy. The unemployment rate also fell to 7.3% but this is largely due to the fact  312,000 people have dropped out of the labor force.

There is an improvement over the 104,000 jobs that were added in July, but the increase is still less than economists were expecting.

Stocks also rose with the reporting of the weak increase in jobs, even though the jobs that people are being hired in are in the weaker, lower paying sectors of the economy.

Tourism in San Diego

San Diego is a beautiful city, and for those of us who live here it is heaven on earth. We have beautiful weather most of the year, we have wonderful places to visit on the weekends, and we have less traffic than Los Angeles (so that is a major plus).

The problem is that tourism in San Diego has taken a hit. The San Diego Tourism Authority is on a tight budget, with a large portion of that budget frozen due to litigation challenging a citywide tourism marketing levy, the Tourism Authority has had to cut its work force to nearly half.

The Tourism Authority has had to make other cuts including in marketing, where the budget was at one point $3million and is now $1.5 million. Marketing promotes our city with television ads in other states, and sends PR representatives to drum up unpaid media coverage. This is a major loss for the city's revenue which depends a lot on tourism.

CNNMoney... On the dating game

Looking for dating advice? Well of course CNNMoney would be the first place you would go and look at, correct? Yeah... Not really. BUT for those of us who keep our finances on our top 5 priorities list, CNNMoney is offering some advice.

There most current dating article is regarding credit scores. In the article Wanna' Date? Show me your credit score first, singles give their reasons as to why they always take a credit score into consideration when dating.

One Californian single male stated that for him it is important to know whether the person he is with is financially responsible because if that relationship leads to marriage, you could be tied to someone with so much debt that it destroys your own.

A woman from Connecticut says that she was raised on living within your means and spening only on what you can afford and not going over that. To her it can mean tension in a relationship where she would be the one responsible for ensuring a healthy responsible future.
