  • Any illness I ever get!
  • The real estate market (can it get any worse?!)
  • The US economy itself (can it get any worse?!)
  • Gas prices (now that they’ve finally gone down!)
  • Things that can break down on my car!

This saying It’ll Get Worse Before It Gets Better has it’s merits

  1. For one, it gives some hope that things will get better
  2. Second, it gives some reality that this first point may not be immediate and that things may actually get worse first but not to give up hope, and why not, if they do.

I know some things can be much worse than they are, I was just being sarcastic earlier. But hopefully they won”t get worse because things sure are bad enough!

Anyhow, a useful and famous saying in many regards. I hope it gets better!
