You should always be living below your means, saving, on top of your spending anyway. It's good business. When an agent or broker gets into this profession during a tough set of market conditions, valuable lessons are learned to prepare for the next, the one after that market cycle. Don't live in fear, that's not living.

There are those who constantly think of the "world" as a crazy place.  It's no way to live, let alone exist, in my opinion.  Be aware but don't be afraid.

More risk adverse.

Current events are going to be very, very disruptive for those living pay-check to pay-check.  After June, 2020, a ripple will be apparent in the real estate market place. Creating some liquidity could be a good idea.

NO! My universe is focused on my household, certainly NOT the global economy. The US economy is still roaring even if the stock market isn't. Hiring and employment are at new highs. My spending hinges only on my own personal economy.

The global economy has been hurting for quite some time.  That's one of the reasons why Brexit happened and why at least three other countries are looking at leaving the EU now.  Corona isn't helping matters any.  With all that said, I'm always risk averse and have compensating controls and risk mitigation in place.

No. The best time to act is when others are running in fear.

Moreover, Every business, entity, govermental group, club, household, country - everything is in some condition of operation and one should "act" with respect to the condition of that organization one is apart of. In other words as far as one's household is concerned - it's best to take actions based on the condition one is in personally rather than whatever is going one with the national or global economy. A small example would be say your income was taking a nose dive because you cut your promotion/marketing lines to economize because of the overall economy - you better get those marketing lines back running again regardless what's happening with the stock market or the price of a sandwich because that marketing is what was bringing your business. And when stats are down you better pour on the promotion (whether it's time or money or some of both) to get things turned around and going back up.

Because of Covid-19 and the current oil prices I see a huge dip coming, possibly just a short term recession. I am curbing my spending for personal and for business.

Nothing has changed for me due to the ridiculous hype, Joseph. I tend to 'live' risk-averse due to having lived through the recession but, I still enjoy a very full life. 

I think making any changes is feeding into the purpose of the hype - a recession. I won't be making any changes and I hope the rest of my peers don't buy into the sensationalism either.
