Today I talk about the article in the Wall Street Journal written by Gwynn Guilford and Charity L. Scott "Is It Insane to Start a Business During Coronavirus? Millions of Americans Don't Think So."
Americans are starting new businesses at the fastest rate in more than a decade, according to government data, seizing on pent-up demand and new opportunities after the pandemic shut down and reshaped the economy.....
In the State Update I share more from the article "The pandemic is actually inducing a surge in employer business startups that takes us back to the days before the decline in the Great Recession," said John Haltiwanger, an economist at the University of Maryland who studies the data.
Finally, in the local update, I talk about forming a Real Estate Team during the shut-down and how I put together a team that has now grown to a total of five agents including myself and we just hired an Administrative Assistant who starts on October 1st.
