(9 Sept. 2009, CNN) Scores of talented individuals have been laid off as a result of the current economic recession. As the large number of unemployed individuals in their 30s seek new career alternatives, they notably look for opportunity within the realm of entrepreneurship. This article offers concrete unemployment statistics as well as abstract ideas regarding the current pursuits of the jobless.
Although the article covers an age group different than my own, I wonder about my situation as a student during these turbulent economic times. How will the people of my generation cope with outside, uncontrollable forces? Only time will tell the opportunities that may or may not arise due to the current state of the economy.

Interesting... reminds me of a NY Times article I read a while back about a new breed of "accidental entrepreneurs." That article didn't discuss age quite as much, but I'm sure there's a tie-in somewhere!
