Blacks dont talk about money and sex
Before lockdown no money talks and no sex talk. During lockdown they are talking only about sex.
Lets talk about money. Ignoring it is equivalent to suicide post coronavirus.The tide is gonna go down and those who are swimming naked will be exposed
Instead of 21 days binging on TV and useless online shopping n subscription I suggest you put your finances in order
Employed
Be greatful if still getting your salary or a part of your salary. Transport costs for you n kids are zero no spending money at the malls. These savings ie transport costs petrol transport for kids can pay kids creche or school fees in advance. Dont spend money on unnecessary online shopping because of boredom. Woman up Man up and save
Business owner or self employed
It will be a fight to stay alive as there wont be the usual number of customers coming to your door. Also you are not travelling do as above as well....pay part of salaries rent suppliers. You wont get gov support if you are not tax compliant. This is time to get an accountant and register as a taxpayer....are you paying income tax Vat uif paye?. If not get an accountant and a lawyer for in case Sars come to your business....if not compliant they will go back few years hit you with a fine and penalties for noncompliant. If you have employees...by the way you are an employee too ...your wife too if she works with you...you need to be registered as a taxpayer. If you cant pay your salaries your staff will go to uif to apply for assistant and you will be required to show uif that you have registered them and you are paying over their uif.....if you were swimming naked you will be exposed
If already on a financial cliff
No money
Get gov assistant if tax compliant
Talk to your insurers
Make your RA paid off
Speak to creditors ask for 3 months payment holiday most bank have this holiday as standard even before lockdown
Ladies n gentlemen if you have been swimming naked or intend swimming naked the tide is down you will be exposed
