This is time to go into Thrifty Mode. Is there any expenses you have been accustomed to that you could put on hold for a while? Can you put Dish TV on hold for a month or two? Cell phone companies will generally let you suspend your account for a few months without cancelling.
Now is the time to make the most of each dollar.
However, do get what you truly need. Don’t forgo necessities like food and medicine.
The primary thing is to put conscious thought into what is spent. Write it out so you can keep a handle on the cash flow.
And, be careful with credit. Just because you can do something or get something does not mean you should. You could get yourself into a big hole real fast.
“Be content with the present things.” (Hebrews 13:5) If your neighbor or relative gets some new item, now is not the time to “keep up with the Joneses”.
