1. Avoid impulsive buying
I have wasted a lot of money buying clothes and accessories on impulse. I have also seen friends buy stuff such as mobile phones and gadgets only to regret later.
2. Use public transport as much as possible
In cities like Chennai, most of the city is well served by public transport buses and trains. Use them. Not only do you save on petrol, you also keep yourself relaxed - free from the hassles of the traffic. And yes, you also become eco-friendly :)
3. Don’t speculate on rumours
Yes, layoffs are happening in India. But that does not mean that every single employee would be laid off. There is no point brooding over news that is half-baked or unreliable. Assess and try building on skills that you lack and hope for the best.
I just hope that this bleak period of uncertainty and depression yields to a bright and colourful future.
