Simply Make More Money

Tweet

Of course that is a bit of a misnomer isn't it? How do you deal with inflation? Well, besides being creative about every aspect of your financial life, you simply have to make more money. It is your best hedge. It's working a second job maybe, or taking on more hours at your current job if you are paid an hourly wage and you can do it. It's adding more shares of dividend paying stocks to your portfolio even if the markets are going down. It's finding more and more ways to make more money from "side gigs" and from Internet activities. Ramping up your searches on Bing. Doing surveys. Increasing your presence on MyLot and other places on the Internet that pay. When inflation is eating your dollars you simply have to find more ways to bring more dollars in. As Rush Limbaugh said more than once, "When the economy is not working for you, you don't have to participate. You can always create your own economy." Now is the time to do exactly that and stack the odds in your favor anyway you possibly can. Because there is no end, right now, to the inflation. No one is doing anything and no one sees it as a problem who has the ability to fix it. You can either be a victim or you can do all you can to thwart it. It really is your only option.
