I don’t want to pretend that my whole existence is perfect and not able to experience downtimes, I’m human first of all and I was not born with a golden poop…!
When I say: Downtimes it is when we feel that everything has been taken away from us, no money nor possible success of a project by which we’re hoping to be another source of income… every luck has no place and it feels that the world has neglected us..
Once in our lives we experience shortness in our budget and it’s all up to us how to adjust with the limited cash on hand…
Here are my bits and tips if the world seems so cruel &
Penniless ( ahem!!)
1.) Prioritize NEEDS especially for the kids
- As parents, it is our responsibility to keep our kids healthy and at least have everything in need (school/home and others) even in a budget tight situation
2.) Promotional or ON-SALE items
- take advantage of the bundle goods in cut-off prices, this is also the time to discover unknown and less expenssive goods
3.) Penny Wise
-a hundred cents makes a dollar, use the concept to save, when buying: always look at the price every penny count
4.) Eat at home and Learn to recycle food
- From my experience, eating at home had saved us almost 45% of our budget
- Oh please!!! Not the dirty ones, Leftovers can be recycled into one great dish, so learn to innovate….

5.) Explore Free Places
- We need a place where we can find peace and away from crisis
A stroll in the park or enjoy the beach side are just few of many good places we can visit with the family without spending alot
6.) Store brand Goods
- FYI: I’ve been experimenting /doing product testing for like years price and quality wise, I would suggest to try STORE BRAND GOODS, these products are basically 60% lesser than the known brand in terms of price, Surprisingly a very well made products!! (Well of course, the brand and quality will live up to the standard)
7.) Always have the Extra cash for Emergency purposes
8.) Have plenty of activities at home for the kids
9.) Choosing the right food and be Healthy
- Have you notice the trend?? Healthy & green foods are less expensive compare to the big size oily expensive junk??
10.) Find a support system thru your trusted friends and Family
11.) Always have the positive faith and attitude when facing downtimes,
Remember: positive attitude = positive result (oh!! pregnant!! Hahaha) what I mean is, if you think positively good things may come to you
Don’t let the problem control you!! Be the driver of your life.... Drive it with confidence and into the right way…!
