    Yes the times are a changing! tips on riding the depression:
    1. shop local, less choice, but you spend less.
    2. get that clever neighbour to repair your car,rather than buying a new one.
    3.only buy clothes at the sale shops(last years fashion,so what)
    4. sell your home and rent.
    5.cancel your phone contract: get a pay as u go.
    6.cancel your cable contract,buy a second-hand VCR
    go to second-hand shops for old VCR tapes 50p each
    7. dig up your roses,plant vegetables-be careful to do this at rear of house or your neighbors will help themselves to your hard work–they will be starving by then!
    8.shop for food daily,buy exactly what you need! no more.
    9. switch your power off during the day, only use electricity at night.
    10.phone social workers and get your kids taken into care.
    11.every month buy a gold coin and hide it somewhere.
    12.keep as little as you can in your bank,hide the rest in a tin in your garden, tell nobody where you put it,not even your wife/husband.
    13.for the first time,become a receiver,not a giver to your church.
    14.say hi! to that wild looking hobo that pushes a supermarket trolley–full of junk, around the neighbourhood.—- he is going to be your next financial advisor!

    welcome to the new world order.

    Another way to save money is to be able to do jobs by yourself or with a friend and not have to hire someone! Check out bigslider.com if you need to move heavy stuff.

    Love the hobo comment. All of our finance blogs are going to light up with this new rate drop. It’s really good time to have money for new investments.

    If you don’t have money, well it’s all the same I suppose?

    Great list of sites. It is good to see that several of them deal directly with debt. Debt is the anchor around the American consumer’s neck. If we would control our debt to a minimal level difficult economic and financial times would not affect us as much as they do now. Being debt free is beautiful. Being debt free is better than buying that new car every three years.

    Get Rich Slowly is a daily read. JD always posts quality stuff, and it’s led to a great community of readers. The comments are sometimes even more helpful/useful than the original already-very-useful post.
