We are not going to scare you with a crisis at all, because we know that those who read our blog and listen to advice are in a much better position compared to others. But in order to refresh your memory, I will list the main points known to everyone, but repetition is the mother of teaching.
First, I will briefly remember about finances: I hope you keep records of your expenses, know your weaknesses and save money for a rainy day? Yes? Great, then let's move on to the repetition:
- Live within your means. We have just begun to bathe in the grace of super-affordable consumer loans, and therefore it is not so difficult for us to forget about them and start living within our means.
- Create and invent. It's not just work that swings: you can invent entertainment for yourself, too. Take a closer look at festivals and exhibitions: privately, if they are not completely free, then they are much cheaper and more interesting than many of your traditional entertainments.
- Take lunch with you. Yes, this will not only save you money, but you will also be able to eat healthy food instead of sawdust from fast food.
- Find a side job. Despite the crisis, there are needs that remain no matter what, so take a closer look at the ads, maybe someone will become your student, or needs your help as a specialist for a couple of hours a day.
I will add that part-time work is especially useful if you suddenly decide to change your career. You can gain experience without leaving your main job. I will warn you right away — do not deceive employers. First of all, I mean the attitude to the case. If you are not able to do a job well, don't take it, think about reputation.
