2010 seen a drop in the economy, multiple automobile factory closings, bank bail-outs, the real estate industry tanked, and unemployment reached a new all time high. Let's face it, 2010 was not our most productive year.
My suggestion, if you want to do better in 2001, pick up a microphone and learn how to rhyme...Right Now!
The entertainment industry did well and those in it can testify to the fact.

Even with all the free downloads, the file sharings, and other technologies that share music, Hip-Hop artists, they make that music that was only going to be a fad, pushed on.
Names like The Sugar Hill Gang, Kool Moe Dee, Grandmaster Flash and The Furious Five, as well as Afrika Bambaataa remind us where Hip-Hop came from; we understand that today's artists are not the first to do it; we also understand that these artists will not be the last to do it.
Since its inception, Hip-Hop has far surpassed anyone's dreams and will continue to defy people's beliefs; Hip-Hop is not dead, and since most Americans judge the success of a business by its annual revenue, you tell me if these innovative artists are successful.
And the numbers are:
