In Times of Difficulties

With all the disaster that every country around the world are encountering. Living in today’s world is getting harder and harder everyday. All because of the soaring prices of food, electricity, water, and medical. A couple with fixed  income like my hubby and I gets depleted and find ourselves having to survive on an even less. Mostly our income goes to food. We never spend on non-essential items but still our salary isn’t enough to cover our needs.
I’m telling you even getting sick we try to avoid not to because we don’t have enough savings.  But  even if your avoiding it things happen unexpectedly. I remember 2 months ago my hubby went home complaining with a severe back aches. I insisted him to have a  cash advance from his employer for him to be able to go to an emergency room. Because that time we’re still waiting for our health insurance.  He said to me “No I can’t do that! I said to him back, why  in my country I can  in just a snap. He smiled at me, saying back to me it’s different here dear.  He’s right, the longer  I  live here, I can say that it is  indeed   different in so many ways from where I came from.  In my observation  no one will be willing to  help you here when it comes to financial difficulties. And for you to survive a living here. You have to do hard  work,  learn how to build wealth  and save more so that unstable times will never  have a bearing on your standard of livin.
