The recent economic recession sure hit people hard all over the world. Due to the financial, people are struggling as how to make ends meet. Some are taking a gamble by going to work overseas, while others are trying to a side line to earn extra income. Desperate times sure breed desperate measures. When I think about all the hard times that we face, I recall that song of the Pet Shop Boys called "Opportunities".
For some reason, I still can't understand the sudden downturn which put us all in this mess. All I know is the hard life has suddenly become harder. People are so desperate that they'll do anything to earn more. It's not that people are getting greedy, it just that they want to maintain that which they worked so hard to build on. The problem is in desperation some people wind up losing more than they gain due to bad financial decisions or money making scams. You really have to be very careful when it comes to money matters since money is so hard to come by now.
Some opted to work at call centers even if the job requires long hours at night. Others just go abroad sacrificing family life just to make more. Others simply cling to what they have. Either way, they'll do anything to get by. I can't blame them because it's felt by everyone everyday. Well good luck to finding something better but remember there's more to life than just money.
