A family member lost his job and my workplace traditionally lends to a lot of individuals in the oil industry but we're holding our own. In the grand scheme of things, I think more people are benefitting from the lower gas prices than have been hurt. And regarding the stock prices, I view it as just an opportunity to buy, unless of course you're retired and relying on those stocks for your short term income. </div></div>

Those who were doing well (stocks) when prices were high are dealing with the cyclical nature of such things. I would thing that in the long run, they should still be $$ ahead...as gas prices have been higher longer than they have been cheap.

BTW, gas here in AZ is around 1.55 ish a gallon....
