Reply #192: 52 year old unemployed 2 years+ !

[NikRik]

Iam a married father of two a 15 year old girl and 13 year old boy.I live in the very high priced cost of living San Francisco Bay Area ! The only jobs being advertised for are usally very specfic in what you need to qualify. I was in retail jewelry sales for years and they simply are not hiring, when the economy takes a hit the last thing people want to go out and buy is high end jewelry ! This long unemployment is effecting my entire family and may end a marriage of 17 years, my family is all I have and losing that also,would only add to the depression Iam finding myself in.I know health care is important for everyone however I really wish they would have made job creation #1 priority.
