It is really easy to read how bad the economic crisis is and to watch your portfolio and the major indexes decline. But it is also very important to understand what life is like for the people losing their jobs and what they face. I think the below 60 minutes piece about Wilmington, Delaware is a must watch.

I implore everyone (who have the means) to consider doing what you can in terms of volunteering or donating food or money to help those most in need.
