How to Live the Same Way With Less Money
We are witnessing a serious economical downturn and we need to adapt to it.
Those who are lucky enough and aren't impacted by the ongoing crisis can skip this article, since they won't care about it too much.
Not that anyone stopped reading, right? There are a lot of ways to live with the same means, not changing anything in your life.
I'll let you brainstorm the more concrete ideas yourself, but here are some basic tips to get you started: 1.
Grow your own food.
This is no joke.
It's not too much work and can save you quite a fortune.
It's very easy to grow onions and other spice, you don't need to start a gardening habit, just don't forget to water them once a week or so.
A pot of onions on your sills can save you more than just a dime in the long run.
And it's also fun to grow your own things.
2.
Buy family packs.
This one is really obvious, but when you think of it, it really makes a difference with, for example, coffee or soap powder, since they always come cheaper in bigger packages.
3.
Use common sense and examine the things you buy.
It is very easy to get lost in today's great supply of various things, for example, two days ago I realized that the shampoo I was using is with the exact same components that a cheaper shampoo has in it.
To be honest, I bought the shampoo I was using for a while, but would it really make a difference? I bet it wouldn't.
If you find yourself in serious financial troubles, these tips won't help you to get rid of them, of course.
Still it's quite nice to spare some money while not changing your habits too much, and more and more people find things like these more appealing than giving away your dog if you just can't buy him enough food.
