Crisis phenomena in the economy are cyclical. Even a healthy economy in a developed country is prone to downturns, needless to say about the Russian market, which has only existed for a couple of decades. In 2012, analysts promise a second wave of the crisis, and you need to be prepared in advance in order not only to survive at this time, but also to increase your capital.
Instructions
Step 1
Expand your horizons. There are many ways to earn extra money, but you need to be able to see them. Do not feel sorry for yourself, do not get discouraged. According to Karl Marx's theory, property can only be considered capital when it is profitable. Think about how you can use what you own.
Step 2
If you have a car, then do not engage in private taxi, which is fraught with great risks, but contact shops, restaurants, cafes, pharmacies and offer courier delivery services. Neither the company nor you will incur additional costs, and this can bring profit to both. The most difficult thing is negotiating with the manager. It is on this that many simply cannot decide. But the crisis is not the time to stand still.
Step 3
Having a home in the property, you can not only reduce the cost of its maintenance, but also make a profit. It is better to survive the time of the crisis together, so for six months or a year you can move to your parents or children, and rent your home. And it is better not for long-term, but for daily rent or by the hour, especially if your property is located in the center. So it will be easier to maintain an apartment or house, and the profit will be higher. If the apartment is not far from the university, then it is possible to rent rooms to students on the basis of Bed & Breakfest, which implies bed and breakfast included in the rental price.
Step 4
During the crisis, many enterprises cut their staff and transfer them to part-time work. If you feel that you are in danger of being fired, look for an opportunity to combine in the same place where you work. You will have more work, but this way you will be protected from reduction. You should not run to the director with a proposal for your candidacy if the position for which you are applying is still occupied. Do this only when announcing an open tender.
Step 5
If you are one of those who, even during the crisis, did not remain without official earnings, then immediately look for something that you can do in your free time. Recently, many have thrown their efforts into freelancing - remote work via the Internet. But here you have to be careful for two reasons: no one will give guarantees that you will receive your fee; if you do not have the ability to write texts or draw graphics, do not spoil your image from the very beginning of your career. Freelance does not tolerate amateurishness. If you take up copywriting or rewriting, get your blog first hand in hand, improve your literacy every day. All of these will help you build a good portfolio. After that, register on freelance exchanges and catch orders. The higher the cost and the lower the requirement, the more chance you will not see the fee.
Step 6
In addition to filling the sites with content, you can start filling out surveys. Yes, they are paid for, but even if you have an account on several such resources, you are unlikely to see the money soon. Firstly, you will not always fit the requirements. Secondly, in order to withdraw money, you will need to collect a certain amount. Thirdly, some questionnaires allow you to withdraw not money, but certificates for purchases in online stores or to replenish mobile phone accounts. Therefore, consider this option not as a side job. If you have an occupation that will bring you faster income, give preference to it.
Step 7
Sell what you don't need. More recently, billboards for a well-known online auction appeared in large cities, calling for the sale of what is gathering dust without work. In any household, you can find mountains of unnecessary things that accumulate in the closet or on the balcony. Tidy them up, take pictures and post ads on whiteboards, blogs. There you can also buy what you need with great savings.
