Hi, and welcome to the Today’s economy blog. My goal here is to provide useful information and commentary that helps you adapt to what’s happening around us. I’ll call on experts. I’ll tell stories. And at the end of each week, I’ll put together a Today’s economy media pack for your reading, viewing and listening pleasure.

Full disclosure: I work for Sun Life Financial. We think we have great products and services, but that’s not what this blog is about. I promise not to try to sell you anything. In fact, our legal department wants you to know that Sun Life Financial is not responsible for any content posted in Today’s economy blog. (That was an official disclaimer, by the way.) Consult with your financial advisor before acting on anything you see here.

I’d love to hear from you. Tell me what you’d like to know about today’s economy and how to navigate this recession. Are you optimistic? Stressed out? Somewhere in-between? I’m not a financial advisor, but I will bring you the smartest people and the best ideas I can find.

Please join us.
