Mr. Money

My first encounter with Mr. Money happened several years ago. Do you know the first thing about being a kid? You have needs! I wanted, needed a bicycle! So I knelt by my bedside and offered a prayer to the Big Man up there. It was purely a business meeting.

20200503_195923_0001 After a few minutes of consultation, he promised that if I kept up with good behavior, Mr. Money was going to pay me a visit.

20200503_195923_0002 Was he going to keep his end of the bargain? I had no idea. There were days I was beginning to think that maybe I had been scammed! But this is the big man up there we’re talking about. He created me, so how difficult would it be for him to loan me Mr. Money for a few weeks? Or months? Or years? Or a lifetime?

Hello fam welcome to my blog! On today’s post I’ll be sharing with you on 4 Ways To Stretch Your Emergency Fund During The Coronavirus Crisis

The coronavirus crisis is creating chaos throughout the world, and not just because of how quickly the new virus can spread within populations and overwhelm healthcare systems. Another side effect of the pandemic is the toll it’s taking on people’s financial lives. Many people are grappling with the reality of being unemployed (or underemployed) without any emergency savings to rely on during this crisis. But that isn’t the case for everyone.

Strong gains were recorded across all the major indices in Europe while US equity futures hit the 5% limit up band which is permissible before the spot market opens. US markets extended their gains after the open as optimism remained rife.

The US dollar eased from its highs which gave some reprieve to emerging market currencies such as the rand. The local unit peaked at a session high of R17.52/$ before it was recorded trading 1.13% firmer at R17.61/$ at 17.00 CAT.
