How students can survive from the context of inflation.

Inflation occurs and causes many problems in which price rising is the biggest one. It affects many people especially the students. Depending on family in finance and now facing with the "price storm", students have to undergo a difficult period. Besides concentrating on study, they have to care much about the cost of living which is rising every day. How can they do to survive from this stage? As a student, I found that inspite of difficulties, students as you and me still can survive if we know how to manage our budget, try to get a part time job and start saving money.

With the same budget as in normal stage, it is not easy to spend in high inflation time, but if we know how to manage our budget, we can balance our life without difficulties. To do this, we can measure the amount of money we need for a day after that divide our budget into many parts depends on days of a month.This way helps us balance our money in a month. Many students spend too much money at the begining of the month, and the result is they have to use instant food in some days at the end. Other thing we should know is how to distinguish things we need from things we like for not waste money on unnecessary things. It seems very easy,but it is not easy at all especially for girls; they are often attracted by lovely things and waste money on them which are almost worthless. Next, before going to the supermarket, we should make a list of things we will buy. Doing this has special meaning; it does not only save time but also prevent us from spending more money than we suppose. After buying something no matter it cheap or expensive, we should note down it into a notebook for checking if things we bought are worth or worthless to cut back them next time. These managing budget ways are not too difficult, but they are really usefull for students in this high inflation.

Finding a part time job is the permanent solution that every students think about in this stage. To have chance to get a job, we have to have free time and know our strengh. Some common part time jobs are tutor, waiter, babysister, casher...These jobs are often annouced on TV or in the newspapers; we should pay attention to these and choose one suitable. A part time job helps us a lot in this stage; we can support ourselves in finance and cut back the burden on our parents' shoulder. Inflation does not affect students only, it also affects other classes in society and their parents are not exceptional. Once we can get a part time job, they are released from the financial care for us. Having a job is good, but we have to concentrate more on our study if we do not we may fail the exams and have to pay much money for studying again.

You wonder how can we save when the budget we have is not enough for us to use? We absolutely can if we find the right ways. We should check our pockets, bags or other coners of our flat regularly to collect coins and exchange money that will make us surprisesurprised; we can collect and keep them in a box to save. Another way is cutting back money for clothing, shoes and only buy things we really need. Some girls spend too much money on clothing, but they do not use them at all; there are some clothes they even never try. These days the petrol and gas price is rising rapidly, we can use public transportation instead of using their motorbike to save a great deal of money for petrol. The last way also the most effective one is using secondhand products. For example, if we need CDs or books, we can find them in secondhand shops. These products will be much cheaper than those in the bookstores while their quality is still guaranteed. Having these effective ways, we can save a big amount of money even when we have to frugal in our living.
