Poor people direct their life according to their sources. They invent hacks and tricks to live on whatever they have. Some hacks seem insane, and some hacks are worthy enough to copy. Such people have shared a few things from their lives on an online platform.
1. Do Not Throw Peels
The concept of saving money can invent useful and ridiculous hacks. One man stated that there are many ways to save money. In their home, they do not throw peels of vegetables and bones. Because these things can be boiled in water and adding some basic spices give a delicious soup. This soup is very healthy for life.
2. Free Books
Reading is a common hobby. Rich or poor, both classes have innate reading hobbies. Rich people buy books. Instead, poor people use free books. In libraries, there are thousands of books available so that poor people can feed their reading needs. With books, other facilities are available such as DVDs and video information.
3. Wait for Sales
One girl stated that if one has the choice to buy things at reduced prices, why would he pay the full amount? The concept of sales is applied everywhere. Poor people wait for these sales. They do shopping when the sales are offered. In this way, they can save a lot of money.
4. Do Not Have Kids
Raising kids is one of the main goals of human life. But raising kids needs a lot of money. Their education, medical services, food residences, and all other needs are to be fulfilled by parents. Thus, if someone cannot afford all these expenditures, he should not have kids.
5. Squeeze Till End
The products of the kitchen and bathroom are really expensive. Poor people use them wisely. And when the things are ended, they even squeeze them. The shampoo bottle can be used one week more if the water is mixed in it. The ended soap bars can be saved and collected to provide a new soap if they are collected. The jam jar provides some extra jam if fingers are used to get the end jam.
6. Knitting
One female shared that she never buys sweaters and jackets for winter. Instead, she knitted themselves. Once, she visits a local market and found the price of winter jackets skyrocketing. She knit sweaters, uppers, caps, socks, gloves, and scarves for the whole family. This only cost the wool thread and needles. And the customized winter stuff is prepared at a low cost.
7. Winter Hack
A commentator shared a winter hack. He stated that the whole family lives in the living room during the day. They ignite a fire in the room and cook all meals and drinks (breakfast, lunch, dinner, tea, coffee) on this fire. In this way, the living room remains hot. And it also saves the gas bill in these days.
8. Join Church
One participant accepted that he joined the church because he was poor. In church, free lunches are available for everyone. He goes there regularly to get this meal every day. No one asks him about this. Not more, but this allows him to save his one-meal money.
9. Donate Blood
People get money by donating blood. One boy shared that once in their town, some medical van came, and they asked youngsters to donate blood. He also donated, and they paid money for this. From that time, he donates his blood when he faces a shortage of money. This is a very healthy activity that rich people should also consider.
10. Find Alternatives
Rich people buy things whatever and whenever they need. But poor people find alternative ways. One man stated that once his bed was broken, and from that time, he was sleeping on the floor. And they do not have coffee makers; instead, they have hands. In his home, when the flour gets finished, they start eating boiled rice.
