Hi all,

Let's be frank here. I can see the situation is quite gloomy now

1. Sales tax- price increase
2. Job market gloomy with the AI taking over jobs
3. Chinese people coming in taking some jobs
4. Gov reducing subsidy
5. Uncertainty in USA with Taco
6. War in Europe not ending soon
7. No headcount in your company even though people resign.

For people in the 40s and 50s are the most at risk. I mean you have reached a certain level of salary/remuneration it's very difficult to find a better position.

How do you prepare yourself?

For me I like doing house work like installing lights, water heater etc. Was thinking of taking some wireman course . I guess these are AI proof for noq.

How about you guys?

not there in 40s yet.

tbh, we are just living and trying to cope with the increasingly unbearable cost of a lot of commitments. can't even hedge off some earnings into savings because that's how bad it is.
gonna try to make a quick buck from selling stuffs in carboot sales, and save some items somehow. doesn't help when you're stuck in the customer service line.

can only take one step at a time, because the future is that uncertain.

also DIY work is good, as well as repairing tech/electronics. but if everyone become kaki DIY then no point having that as a side income.
