here, it's the exact opposite. food inflation is nil with the CPI up just slightly, while in Canada and the US both have sky rocketed

think that's cuz for imports the Caribbean in general has always been more closely aligned with South America and China. my cigs are from Colombia, the cars here 'speak' in Mandarin

so yeah, for people on a tighter budget discretionary spending is the first thing to get cut, doubly so if they feel their econ future is under threat. that can't not impact even B2B clients who sell whatever they do as B2C

hang in there, this too shall pass
Nice, sounds like a good place to be living right about now!

Yes, I do love eggs too! Brown, cage free, organic, easy over (or sunny side up) slightly runny, with some toast to dip. Yum. lol

Speaking of eggs, I never put all my eggs in one basket, simply based on past experience, so I work on several different projects and sometimes do freelance work as well. Spreads you thin, but, it is what it is. I was in lead gen for a long time, and it did extremely well, much more than any adult venture ever did for me. Unfortunately, some unexpected / unforeseen challenges happened with new regulations that killed about 60% of my organic traffic. The cost to advertise was too high for what was being generated. Long story short, it was a slow, draining process, but it ended that business.

This particular model is focused on businesses here in the US, and in a nutshell helps them generate more business. But many don't want to invest the small amount that is costs.
