People think I'm negative

"Why all the focus on this? It sounds all doomsday."

I once got that response. Was I being negative trying to highlight something that was both coming and had implications for people and what they should be doing?

If I was a resident of Greece, telling people to get their money out of the banking system in 2009, would I be called negative? It's only negative if you only consider it from where you "think" you sit.

I wish you the opposite of ignorance.
