Economic conditions that are increasingly difficult to make us have to always think creatively, I also feel a difficult economic impact since Pandemi, I use things that are for example I plant vegetables and raising fresh fish that I can give food from leaves, and this is enough to help reduce posts Daily expenditure, as long as we want to think and act seriously, we can solve everything.
Yes, apart from the impact of the pandemic, the war between Russia and Ukraine also greatly impacted the economies of several countries in Europe, the increasingly expensive prices of basic necessities causing spending to swell and not matching salary income.

You are right in a situation like this we have to try to be as creative as possible to reduce expenses.
You have provided one of the right solutions by becoming a farmer, besides being able to increase your income you can also consume your own crops and at least this can help your family's economy a little.
Being a farmer can indeed be a way to survive in this harsh situation, yes, even though we can't sell or make money, at least it can reduce our spending on basic commodities. I am grateful that I live in an environment that still relies on natural products for my necessities of life. If it's just for daily food, I don't have to pay very high costs, because I still have stocks of agricultural products.
It would be very different, of course, if living in big cities, because usually they have to buy it every day even if it's just to eat. This is something that no one else can feel, I am grateful for this.

One has to keep oneself ready for every situation after earthquake in Turkey my many well off friends lost everything in a jiffy
You think you are safe in the house and then you run out sometimes you run back home like in COVID - life is so unpredictable

Unexpected situations could happen anytime so we must be creative and wise in finding ways to survive during times of disasters and difficulties. It's either we save or find alternative ways to earn. I agree that planting crops would be helpful as well as putting up a small business so we will have a source of income in case uncertain situations might happen especially if we have no one to rely on.

we got to experience some very fine strategies in this forum.
The most vaild point is that war between Russian and Ukraine has done a serious damage to the world
And this is inseparable from Russia's strength which is bigger than Ukraine so that it can cause a lot of destruction in several important sectors in the economic sphere. But I can't give a more in-depth conclusion on this matter because I don't really feel the bitterness and hardship in my life when they are fighting, even though I also don't consider the war that was caused as a normal thing. We hope that this year the world condition will improve soon and there will be no continuous war.

my parents used to hand down clothes - books and many other things to the younger sibling
we used to get the old stuff from the richer family members and it kept going until we started earning on our own and then we never looked back
bad times does not remain the same neither does good time
During my parents time that was like this too. My father was the biggest son so he usually got the brand new stuff, but his clothes ended up used by his brothers as well, same with school stuff as well, all the books and notepads and pencils and all that was shared basically whenever one needed it.

But they grew up, and the Chinese factory boom happened basically during my youth, and I was his only son, so I kept getting all kinds of great life thanks to him being great father and helped me get a great life later as well, if I am living a great life today even without his help, that is all thanks to him knowing the value of money back when he was a kid.
When you are raised on a situation where it isnt really that appealing or something that you could really say that it is hard, then you would likely be able to grow which does appreciate things around you and on things which you do acquire through hard work.This is the main difference comparing into those people who are provided on everything.Im not saying that its a must but we could really actually see the difference.
When it comes to harsh economic conditions then we do know that those who do live on middle-poor class are the ones who do mainly been affected and struggle that much,
this is why if you are a father of a certain household then of course it would really be normal that you would be finding methods and ways to sustain.
that is so true!
Many people are raised in a middle class situation they struggle to earn money - these people are constant struggler and late in life they reach to a successful point and their their coming generation enjoy those luxuries and strat the circle all over again

You are someone to emulate. You have done a really good job. You are both responsible and forward-looking. Apparently, you aren't only good at financial management, something that many of us here in my country sorely lacks, you are also practical and wise.

But if I may conjecture, you also don't have a vice, right? Correct me if I'm wrong, but the impression is that you don't spend on useless things. Smoking, drinking, gambling, and other vices are some of the main reasons why many families here cannot arrive at a sufficient budget. A good slice of their income simply goes to waste because of these vices.

Cheap but quality products:


If you do really go for something realistic and would be able to avoid some financial problems then you should really stick into this two on which it would really be that helpful
for you to save up even more and not would really be having bad situations on the time you would be needing some financial back ups specially on bad economic conditions on which
it would really be that much crucial if you do have the savings.
It seems that this point is an important thing that must be recorded and applied in surviving the current economic situation. even this point will also be effective when economic conditions have improved. I love it. But to get cheap but quality products certainly requires more effort. because most of what we encounter on the market are cheap products of course with standard quality and not very good for the long term.

Homeschooling seems to be the only part that is a bad decision. There is a reason why schools exists and it is not just to teach kids and educate them, it is also there for socializing, kids who grow up with at least 20+R other kids would grow up to be a bit more normal socially, sure there are some weird grown ups who grew up with other kids, being bullied and so forth could have dire impacts in adulthood, but that is not for every kid, that's a small portion, whereas most people turn out to be regular normal people.

Hence, I can't support that, send to a public school if you want to but send you kids somewhere without a doubt, there is no way they should be homeschooled.
Homeschooling is a very good idea - but it's difficult at the same time. A person like me would not be consistent to do it for a longer period of time.
But having said that I have seen a lot of mother who are doing this to better educate their kids and save some buck as well. This is very much in demand as well.
This time is a very difficult time in some region while other may be trying to be doing well. The economy is harsh and we don't know how long things is going to get better. There are some persons that lost there jobs during the covid-19 period and till now they have not gotten any reasonable jobs.

Growing some crops: We have little space in our compound and we have started a vegetable garden which has cut the cost we spend on vegetables. We have also started plans to develop eight plots of land Cassava farm that can provide a year-long supply of our main staple food called the "garri
Hi Dera sir Some tips for a successful vegetable garden and cassava farm include planning carefully, starting small, using compost, watering wisely, managing pests and diseases, harvesting regularly, and storing crops properly.

While growing up I will used to see a lot of parents hand down clothes from their eldest child to the younger ones, sometimes they even have to amend the clothes just so it will fit the younger ones. This was one of the methods of survival during the harsh economic realities of that time. I never understood this until I became older. In this time my survival strategies include:

- getting used items instead of new ones.

- taking walks to short distances instead of ordering a ride. I am considering buying a bicycle.

- I work out at home instead of spending money on monthly gym subscription.

- I bought a solar panel and batteries for electricity instead of using petrol powered generator whenever there is power cut.

- I have resorted to making my own body lotion instead of buying expensive lotions at the supermarket/malls.

I can go on and on but I'd stop here now. I hope I have been able to share some valuable insights.
That is a good thing - my parents used to hand down clothes - books and many other things to the younger sibling

Homeschooling is indeed more effective and economical, the thing that makes it difficult for us to implement homeschooling is that children get bored easily and won't concentrate when studying, they will see toys or a place to play at home making it very difficult, I've tried homeschooling but it wasn't satisfactory and I had to find a school that according to the child.

Home schooling of children can be considered as a means of saving the family budget.  

However, homeschooling has significant drawbacks.  At present, the main value for people is not knowledge (search engines and neural networks are always ready to provide people with any information upon request), but social communication skills.  To acquire these skills, the child must communicate with peers.  

Learning together with other children, the child learns to obey and command, to be at enmity and to be friends.  It is at school that a child can acquire leadership skills and learn to work in collaboration with other people.  

These skills are of great value and cannot be acquired through home schooling.
The only problem - people are not preferring homeschooling is because most of the people think their kids won't be able to socialize and won't be able to move along with the society. which is also right - there are advantages and disadvantages of home schooling however I would say advantages are more than disadvantages
