The same thing we do every recession, Pinky. Try to spend as little as possible on only the essentials and hope we don’t end up homeless.
Self-employed tradesman, ill probably have to get a normal job. Which sucks for everyone, I keep my costs way lower for customers but digging up business and doing the work is a real challenge. And obviously ill miss my freedom. But at least ill just have to pull my 40hrs.
Maybe dumb question: are there loose trade groups that could share advertising / business digging? Or are you basically in competition with everyone else in your field?
Not the person you’re asking, but I’d guess the answer is, it depends. When I had a lawn care service I’d send work to other guys who did what I wouldn’t and they would reciprocate. Did the same with my PC fixing side hustle. “I don’t fix phone screens, but I know a guy.”
Kinda, sure. I know some people and we help each other when we can. And there’s networking stuff you can do, local small business meetings where you can hand out some cards.
But competition is spiking. Lots of people are starting in trades like mine now.
Jerking dudes off behind a dumpster is recession proof employment.
I’ve had friends in the strip club business that have complained about how they make less money when the economy is down. Idk if your plan would be affected in the same way.
Totally different business I actually give the people what they want.
Until you sell out to private equity.
And then you pay another dude to jerk you off, and he pays the guy you jerked off to jerk him off. That’s 3x GDP right there. Recession solved.
Doing that tech bro math.
Probably The Winchester.
Wife works for a gov in a very stable position, keeping costs below her salary is how we plan to.
Y’all have plans?
I have only known recession, when do I get to experience something else?
I’m already homeless and I’ve got an okay job. So I either I keep living like I do or things become too expensive and I die.
care to expand a little? interesting (the homeless and jobful part)
Plans? Sir, you’ve misjudged me.

Boss makes a dollar, I make a dime…
I heard there’s a nice peaceful forest in Japan I could visit for a little while.
I heard you can stay there forever, they only remove you if they find you. I’m an expert at hide and seek.
they’ll never find me.
Starve
