The Money Glitch Shock on MBA Graduates



Money Glitch is any recent MBA graduate that is in transition seeking to find that dream job that over the years has managed to slip through their hands. Numerous graduates within the last two years have walked down the aisle taken their diplomas and went straight back home or to the unemployment line instead of having prearranged jobs like those that graduated before them. When graduates started school two years ago, the farthest thing in their minds was the present recession money glitch. Maybe before going any further I should define the term money glitch. One can view a “glitch” as being an electrical hiccup that can cause mayhem with your laptop that might do a quick “crowd wave” or the lights may flicker causing you to jump while being in transitional darkness. On the other hand, my sister can create her own glitch by sliding her feet on any type of surface and then touching someone.

A money glitch for the Gen Yers can be found in secret places within games like the X–Box and Oblivion. For Gen Xers many have never called it a money glitch before; however about every 8 to 10 years they find themselves in one when their money sources are just all of a sudden gone. Well, within the last two years every generation is feeling the money crunch (the negative effect) caused by this recession. Many Gen-Yers are experiencing for the first time hearing “No, I can’t buy you the latest electronic gismo,” being shouted by their parents. The Gen Xers want to hold on to their last few dollars hoping that the market will rise again sooner than later. Many find themselves wanting to retire in a year or two but the financial wand that waved and created the money glitch is just too powerful to overcome.

So this blog will be looking at this recession identifying the different types of money
glitches and how individuals are handling various situations. Stories will be told, debates will be started, and polls will be taken examining the positive influx of money that occurs in the money glitch games and the negative effects of this money glitch recession. It is the author’s intent to create a platform where you feel free to share your stories and perhaps provide insight to others that may find themselves in dilemmas that you’ve overcome.
