Question by Gary: Family financial problems?
I am 15 and living in dublin with my family. Parents brother and sister.
My parents own theirnown business manufacturing window frames, and from what i can guess they make alot of money from it. We have a big modern house and 2 holiday homes. As you probably know there is a recession now :(. And my parents seem quite depressed. Christmas is on the way and well my parents are getting me a computer that i have wanted for years but i was too young. The computer is quite expensive.

I have noticed my mum a bit sad latley and i adked her why. She said that the bank are “giving us grief”. Basically my parents seem to be in quite a bit of debt. This makes me really sad because mainly my parents can enjoy chrismas because of the stupid bank.

Really i dont know why im posting this on yahoo. Its probably just because i feel a bit sad and scared. I feel bad that my parents re getting me expensive things when we probably cant afford it.
Im pretty sure my parents were making 3000 a month before the recession ( after bills and taxes) because in the safe all the envelopes said the month and €3000

Now they only have 1000 and decembers envelope only has 850.

Answer by Bill
Don’t blame “the stupid bank”, it is the state of the overall economy that is causing problems for people and businesses. Your folks are just going through a tough financial period just like millions of others but it should get better. Have a nice Xmas and be thankful for what your family has.
