"Riding Out the Storm" is a project of Nightly Business Report on PBS. It's aneffort to focus on personal stories and personal finance during this recession.  NBR wants you to use uVu to upload video of yourself talking about your experiences in this financial hurricane. Your story could help others. We also want you to upload your personal finance questions. We'll select as many of them as we can, ask personal finance experts to answer them on camera, and upload those answers here as well.
