Positive Economic News Is Coming
February 2nd, 2009 Categories: Gwinnett, Local Business
We all have been reading and hearing of all the poor economic news for going on two years now and personally I am tired of it. Yes, the economy has some serious issues that need to be addressed, however we all need to make sure we get our heads out of the sand and start making a difference to help bolster the economy.
How do we do this? Personally I think we need to stop focusing on all the negative and start looking at positive signs that are out there. Are you aware that there are positive things going on in the economy that are rarely if ever mentioned in the media outlets? I am going to start blogging on a weekly basis the Positive Economic News as it relates to real estate and the other areas of our local and national market.
So here goes:
Insurance company Geico is planning on hiring over 850 new employees in the first quarter of 2009.
