      Terrified of the possibility of a repeat of the 2008 financial crisis. Having grown up watching my family get through it did not endear me to the prospect of going through it myself. I was making good money 6 years ago. We are scraping by today. If things get as bad as 2008 again, I honestly have no idea what we’ll do.
