The Consumer position this year

This year is very difficult. We live from hand to mouth. What should we do? The answer is used what is available. Obviously you cannot budget using the money of someone one.We have learned it from the withdrawing  of USAID. The disappointments will be 1.Not sure where you will get the money. 2.The source is not reliable like gaming,betting. 3.The source may have its own conditions  like doing odd job,conditional love etc 4.More essential demands like daily food. The challenges are 1.money is too little to cover the expenses. 2.the sources may dry up at anytime. 3.the money is totally unavailable. What can you do? 1.Have a piece of land around  your house. 2.Plant vegetables. 3.Water your vegetables like tomatoes, onions a spinach where you will plant these vegetables at 5mx5m 4.After 3 months,you may be relieved. What can you do with the surplus? Sell the vegetables or give it to the local market and share the profits. Meanwhile plant 4 fruit trees.

State of Consumption

There are Five classes of People in this Century: 1.Those who work from hand to mouth. 2.Those who depend on the Government and Grants. 3.Those who are oppressed financially. They get lucrative salaries but the taxman takes half of their salaries.Such People are trying to live a better  life so thalf of the Salary is wiped away and they are left with Zero. 4.There are those who are extremely Rich. They have everything of which they  motivate us but we don't reach them. 5.There are those who  live a " normal life" and their salaries and expenses are maintained  with no debts until at the next Salary Date. The next Question is: Are the above classes  occurred automatically or accidentally or planned? What I believe is , everything,every achievement depends on the Person himself/herself. The next Question is: Can you change and live a better life? Yes you can. It depends on your EFFORT,CONSISTENCY, PLANNING with an aim from MINIMUM to MAXIMUM  Target.
