If you want to start a business
Here are some tips from our Consumer Reports Money Adviser newsletter on starting a small business (written for retirees but with general advice) and ways to finance one, including links to other resources.

If you get discouraged
Finding a new job can take some time, especially in an economy like this one. So keep at it, pace yourself, and try not to get too discouraged. If you feel overwhelmed, know that there’s plenty of help available for that too. Here, for example, is some advice from our health Web site on stress and depression.

Good luck!
