AskHive : Securing Money during Corona Pandemic

Corona Virus Pandemic has impacted the business all over the world, like IT, Restaurants, Travel, Banks, etc. The impact will worsen more and more if the virus cannot be controlled. There are no new opportunities, less profit resulting in Job Loss, low income, furloughs, etc. Those who are in the job, fear about their job losses in the future. ‘Money security’ is an important factor because of the uncertainty because no one knows when the market and economy will recover.

What I am doing :

1 - Reviewing my expenditure and planning a budget - I am looking at all the money I have on my savings account, Fixed Deposit and Debt Mutual Fund and keeping it secure for the uncertain future. I am also looking into my expenses and trying to cut down on it as much as possible. Since I am at home, I don't need a mobile internet connection since I have Wifi at home. I have one big expense that is Home Loan which I cannot defer, so I am budgeting

My Savings - Home loan amount = Total Cash in Hand

2 - Look for Alternative Income Source - Since we have Hive and Steem, I will try to be more active on the platform just to get the money flowing as a passive income, using that I can sustain my self for some time. Also, I try to create a portfolio for any part-time work in the future.
