The financial crisis of 2008 (2007-2009?) was not that significant in large parts of the world. I was living in Finland, and many of my friends were graduating and finding jobs around that time. From our point of view, the crisis was something that happened mostly in the news and had little effect on the real world.
The depression in the early 1990s was another story. It may have hit Finland worse than the Great Depression in the 1930s.
