I was thinking within me and my thoughts was if  everyone needs to get a digital skill in-spite of their profession or discipline. looking at it from the angle of declining economies where political, societal, ethnic, cultural, religious, territorial and economic war is hitting the apex as well as currency devaluation. Following this high level of declining economy is it best to get a digital skill either as a full time business or a complementary pay check.

Salaries and wages this days aren't sufficient any longer to handle daily bills, most salary earners still live below their salaries which keeps them in perpetual debt. Now in this era the best place to meet a vast crowd of clients is on an online platform and this way more services can be rendered within lesser time with more patronage. So i began my thoughts is digital skill the alternative

If we try to analyze this critically we might say this insufficiency in pay checks is one of the factors that is triggering greed, selfish and money conscious services around organizations. I was thinking If many get an side paying job with digital skill that can help handle bills it might be a gateway to reducing the self centered services we receive

Are you thinking what i am thinking or you have a different view


I agree with you on the same statement so I think digital knowledge helps us to take a decision at any time at any moment.

We have 6 pages of discussion, and no one yet suggested to study languages and become a translator. During war, being able to share news on different languages, to let news cover more and more media might be really demanding.
The craze for IT related jobs is very big in the third world countries and because a large portion of the userbase here comes from such locations hence the skewed information.

In a war or any other disaster, there is need for all types of skilled workers, we need farmers, healthcare staff, engineering staff, Journalists and New reporters but nobody wants to get into these jobs or attempt them - the reason is simple, these require physical labor and that is always pushed aside when a home-based work option is present. This should not offend anybody's view though, if you are skilled in IT, they should work in it. But there have been hordes of wannabes in IT than any other sector out there.

Without a doubt online skills can help you tremendously when facing adverse conditions in your country, as not only you get paid many times over what you could get paid in your country you also get paid with foreign currency, which most likely it is doing way better than the one you would have to use locally, and when we add that you could get paid in bitcoin or convert your money into bitcoin this opens the possibility to multiply your capital many times over if bitcoin enters a bull run, which helps your financial situation even further.
I'm quite interested in saying about efforts that will not betray the results..
If everything we can and the effort we do there, of course the results will definitely follow depending on our efforts.
The skills we have will be better and indeed will be more considered when we are in the right place, for this now skills in processing data or words related to online will certainly be very useful, especially in the current era which relies more on online than offline, especially in times of pandemic or conflict like this.
This is a good thing to continue because there is no harm in trying and always trying to stay on this path

Another upside of online skills is that even if your nation is getting poorer and poorer (my nation literally has under 300 bucks as minimum salary) you could always have online skills that can turn into thousands of dollars monthly, which will mean that you will be rich. Imagine being a great coder in Venezuela, and making a thousand dollars a month, which is not a big amount for a coder, that person would live like kings there, and could earn crypto and it is easier to cash crypto out there.

All in all, online skills combined with crypto could prevent you from going down with your nations terrible economy and even though the whole world is getting worse, you could keep your wealth by earning more.

Although in the past skills like being a developer/programmer or virtual assistant is still in demand today

I find it strange, as becoming a developer or programmer is one of affordable jobs right now. You just a need a pc, an access to internet and start self education. As if the more IT guys are grown, the more demand on them is. Things should be opposite.

We have 6 pages of discussion, and no one yet suggested to study languages and become a translator. During war, being able to share news on different languages, to let news cover more and more media might be really demanding.

What we should pay attention to is that war can happen at any time, many countries continue to develop weapons and militaries so this is a sign that war can happen at any time, apart from war, the country is also prone to riots, so we have to be smart, saving assets online is the most important thing nowadays and crypto is the best place to store assets.

When talk of digital skill, it looks as ever we are concentrating for trading skill of cryptocurrency. But not aware that we have diver's of digits skills, before that was my human sense of humor. But i know that digital skill like coding and Programm is existing which with that alone some can earn a living. But in a country that is not civilize can not have a center were the knowledge will be impacted, but people who is for the civilized world will have the knowledge and also apply initiative, and if have the opportunity i will more less secure digital skill for myself and impact the knowledge to my children

Online skills are getting more and more useful nowadays, especially when there is a riot or war, many people think realistically that war can happen anytime and anywhere so storing assets online is a very good and safer thing, and the best skill when there is war is to immediately arrange money so that can be used at any time without depending on banks and crypto is the answer.

It's always been useful even prior to the pandemic and the war in Europe. But you need to learn how to look for online jobs that will suit your skills and talents. 10 years ago or more, it's easy to find online jobs, well at least there's no face to face interview, you just have to talk to the person who wants to hire you. But now it's different, a lot of competition so they filter everyone first and then go face to face interview and if you are not telling the truth about your skills then obviously you will not get hired.

Although in the past skills like being a developer/programmer or virtual assistant is still in demand today, they are more skills that one company or person needs in this current time. So if someone wanted to have a online job, they really have to developed themselves.

The competition is getting tough because you are competing with younger generation with more updated and advanced skills in terms of technology. But if you are diligent, you will find one that may suit your experience and skills. You just need to be patient these days. The first try will not always be the job that will accept you. Take it as a challenge of life because as long as we are alive, there's hope for us.

yes i agree with you. When chaos occurs and even threatens our jobs, the only key is the skill to use online platforms as a place of income. The salary we get today can't make us pay all the bills, let alone fulfill other desires. now the realization that we must have a way to train ourselves to be able to earn an income online.
It must be admitted that with the internet, it is easier for someone to get a job. Because for me it's easier to earn money online than looking for it
in the real world. Even for now the income I earn online is greater than my salary at my main job. It's all because I always improve my skills
by taking courses, you are absolutely right in the economic crisis situation due to the pandemic, can't seem to just rely on the salary we get from
our main job in the real world. But we have to work hard to get a side job in the online world, so that we can not only fulfill our daily needs.
However, we can set aside money from our income for investment, so that we can plan our future well. The problem is we have to be able to compete
with many people when looking for work in the online world, therefore never stop learning to improve our skills.
Online jobs are currently developing and during the Covid-19 outbreak, many people are involved in online work. The salary increase that we get today is not proportional to the inflation that occurs. therefore we cannot survive relying on salaries, unless we have power in the government, whose welfare always follows developments. but that's okay, because the income from this online business also provides a large income, if we can manage it, then this can be used to open other businesses until finally our business is operating in several fields of business.

Some survey results do show that after COVID-19 more and more people are looking for money on the internet. Not only because quite
a lot of companies are reducing their workers and making the unemployment rate higher. And because of the limited job vacancies available
in the real world, finally looking for jobs online is the choice of many people around the world. There are also some companies that do not
lay off their employees, but must be willing to take a pay cut, due to declining company income. It is also a consideration that many people
choose to look for online jobs, because online jobs can offer bigger salaries. Moreover, working online is much more effective in terms of time
and much safer in a pandemic situation like now. That's why competition in the online world is fierce, and only people who have good skills
can easily get jobs. So to be able to compete in the online world in finding work, as I said before we have to improve our skills.

It’s not possible to get the skill based on the war country.The people look into the income sorce for their survey.Some people who had the money for the future,they will double the money using the lending of the money to the people who don’t had anything for their basic needs.Secondly people will agree to go to any physical work to get money for their basic needs.

Sadly in this war of aggression by Russia against Ukraine, the whole world is losing. Just after getting over the disaster that was two years of the worst global pandemic in living memory, we are now faced with the worst European war since the second world war - for the sake of one mans vanity. The internet offers huge possibilities for most of the world, sadly places like Russia and China are going the route of censoring their own people, trying to build internal networks rather than embrace the sharing of global ideas. For the rest of us the possibilities are almost endless and new ways to produce useful connections are coming out every day. You can learn to be a programmer, a designer, perform many services, plug into the part time jobs market or so many other things.

Now is the time to use online platforms to earn. we should be more diligent and make good use of our free time. now for those of us who are not employees of the company can make ends meet by utilizing online platforms such as bitcointalk and also youtube and several others to earn money. for someone who doesn't have enough salary, they can still make time to earn online. I think work harder, because the bill will always come every day.

Having a digital skills in the face of war and even in normal condition is very much encouraging, with the increasing demand for digital skills across the Globe, one needs to acquire a digital skills in this 21st century ... Bringing it to the face of war, for instance the Ukraine war. Someone with a digital skills is very much in advange over someone that does physical jobs, because they will not feel the impact of loosing their jobs in the face of war , because they can work from anywhere they are online.
I agree with your thinking, because the logic is that now we live in the modern era as well as the digital era, so without us realizing that digital knowledge is something that is important for us to master even in times of war, pandemic or normal circumstances, for those who master digital knowledge Of course will be able to have a better life now and in the future, because I think everything that is physical today will be digitized in the next few years.
Physical based jobs and other things would still remain no matter how the industry would really be changing up but its true that you would really be having an advantage if you do have some online based type of skills
which you could really make use or utilize on times of need or crisis which cant be possible for you to go into your physical job and its true that it is really something useful on somehow that you could
really make yourself survive and able to make still some income in times like these thats why its should really be somewhat compulsory on learning something.

If you really want to have an additional income amidst the war happening because of its consequences such as increase in prices of goods and commodities, you may opt to do so. Upskilling is a good thing most especially if you want to find a work for a sideline online. Because as you know, the competition in landing to a good paying online job is strong too, hence, you have to find your niche and focus on it to offer it to your potential clients. You have to find your skill/s, hone it, and utilize it to your own advantage as much as you can. There are many people that just started their job hunting for the sake of having a second job. And I know many people that got really fortunate to make it their main source of income due to sufficient and even more than enough compensation for their work.

Since most salaries aren't really enough like what you said, a lot of people are really forced to find another source of income to get by or perhaps also sustain the lifestyle they desire. Having an online job now that there is a war happening is viable depending on your determination and resources. The Internet isn't really affected by the war of Russia-Ukraine, and hopefully it won't be affected in the future. That's why anyone can pursue it if they have and want to because there's nothing really wrong about it. As a matter of fact, it's practical.

Actually its hard to find any skill based work in a country where war is ongoing. Most of the people will be job less and those who are business owner would like to save their money not investing in a business. Only those type of work will be available that requires physical strength.

There will be very less work that requires online skills not because of money but also electricity and internet connection. In a region where conflict kicks out will have electricity supply disruption. Still there will be certain type of work that will still be valuable like gather information for news channel. It will be risky but most valuable assets in war time.

It's not enough to just have a skill, you have to know how to use that skill in the best possible way, and that means a stable personality, mentally and emotionally mature, the person that knows how the world works and to set himself in the right way in every situation! That kind of person will get the job before the most technically knowledgeable and skillful talent around without basic manners, sort of speaking!

So any skill is a good skill only if you know how to use it the right way! As I said to use it you need to be aware of things around you and to be able to adapt and upgrade your skill in order to meet the demand! I guess every skill, doesn't matter how bizarre it can be, have potential, but only with the combination of your character!

I believe digital skills we need most will be AI based coding.  AI based tech development is going to be the future. A lot of services we do conventionally today will become autonomous from healthcare to market product selection. AI will greatly assist us in future and just the way mobiles and apps have become part of our daily lives. A lot of opportunities will be coming soon in AI development. There will be huge demands of experts in this field
