So I just saw on twitter -> https://twitter.com/SimonPB/status/740476755853606912

 

That we had a negative GDP growth, how does this work in terms of if we get another quarter then we will be in a recession if I understand it correctly?

 

 

Question:

 

What does a Recession mean to average joe?
