I’m not sure what journalists and the BBC are taking at the moment. From two weeks of credit crunch, recession, credit crunch to a whole weeks coverage of Russell Brand and Jonathan Ross’s answerphone messages. Deary me, the world gets a little crazier.

Yes what they did is probably a bit silly but it’s not headline news. There is so much deforestation and ecological problems to worry about that I can’t believe this is given more than 2 minutes of headlines. The ecological crunch dwarfs our banking crisis and it’s not even being talked about! It makes me crazy.

The media should be more controlled by the government on its priorities. The media has too much say on what our subconscious minds are concentrated on. If we were thinking about more positive things, more ways to save the world, it would be a different world we lived in.

We could focus on making some real changes to peoples lives, changes to the environment and even changes to our economy. Instead, we are bombarded with negative news. My advice is to ignore it all, switch off your TV’s and make a difference on your own.

I shouldn’t have left you guys so long without a blog post, won’t happen again! Things have gone a little crazy with the world economy lately. If you saw Peter Jones on BBC Breakfast News this past week he was saying we are talking ourselves into this mess, I have to agree with him.

It is becoming a self fulfilling prophecy and we need to stop talking about it and start looking at solutions and other news. There are worse problems in the world than our banking system - the state of Africa, global warming and deforestation. These are testing times for a our world and I’m sure we’re all come through it if we focus on positive things.

My advice to students is to stay as normal - keep an eye on every pound you have, open a savings account and source a part time job if you can. It’s possibly true that you may not be able to find a part time job as readily as before but the savvy businesses will start to take on part time students as you’ll be cheaper labour (unfortunately) and you’ll appreciate the work.

Here at wealthystudent.co.uk we are trying to battle the economy in our own little way by sourcing vouchers for you. We have many meetings this week and we already have discounts from the likes of Gourmet Burger Kitchen, The Boomerang Card and Discount Theatre Tickets.
