Natalie Portman: recession makes people more creative!

Natalie Portman

Natalie Portman is either a brilliant woman, either a very selfish one. The actress recently declared that the world financial crisis ‘’is exciting’’. Honestly, until now, we only saw its bad part: millions of jobless. But the actress thinks that recession makes people more creative! Hm, she could have a point!

“I think it’s an exciting time. I mean everyone is cutting back. All of a sudden, people are not making as much money as they thought they would or they’ve lost their jobs entirely. I’ve started to see people looking more toward their own passions and what really excites them”, she said.
So, what Portman wants to say is that being poor makes you give everything out of you in order to provide yourself a decent life? We are more creative because there is no other way that we can handle the situation? It is sad that we have to be good only in bad times, but still, if that is what it takes for us to be good, then crisis there is!
