A real financial crisis is when the prize of bread is about $100 million, and the value of the paper becomes more valuable than the actual money itself, as happened to Germany in 1923 for example.
You often see graphs of 'how the economy is in crisis', however they tend to not show you the bigger picture. The world economy on average has been growing for as long as we know, this is not linear though, it has its ups and downs, but compared to 10, 50, or 100 years ago we ought not to complain. The problem usually (if not always) lies within the people themselves, the more there is available, and the more choice you have, the more people expect, and the more they expect, the easier they complain. As I said before, up and downs in the economy happen all the time, today it is not the day we should worry about it, we know these little downfalls happen every now and then, it is not proper reason to go insane about. Cherish what you have, it is more than nothing, it is probably more than the vast majority in this world, and do not forget times have been worse.

An opinion can never be wrong.
