9,000 pts is good for Jan 2009. There can be many ways to improve quality of life via domestic economy.

How about more control for a lower price for food products to boost groceries for home, during the slowdown in foreign trade. Cheaper food will make homes more richer via more affordability but limit daily purchase amount for foods that are in demand.

Essentially to overcome slowdown, food and type of food expenses can be changed to handle the slowdown. More foods can be imported in via high yen buy value in slowdown times.

Many suggestions and ideas from public should be be implemented to fight the slowdown effect. Declare war on the slowdown effects to inspire public to change spending and food expenses in slowdown period. Japan people need to learn how to stay still more,cut down on unnecessary travel expenses. Read more books in slowdown times,to enrich the mind more. Rich minds is the way out of any woes. Simplify living and practise high thinking. Practise higher taste for food. These are some suggestions, bet there are many others from JT readers.

Well now is when people who still have money should be buying undervalued stocks. Makes sense to me.
