Due to this corona virus pandemic, the unemployment rate is growing fast. The vast numbers of pay cuts and job losses have created a financial crisis among people. It is true that due to this pandemic, the economy is going through a rough phase and it is the consumers who are suffering from financial problems.
But, to survive in this difficult situation, you have to find different income sources. Most people are trying to look for a secondary source of income so that they can repay debts on time and protect their credit score.

Weekend business ideas:
● Baby-sitting-services
If you have very small kids and you take care of them, taking care of another child along with your own will not be very difficult for you. This service is also very cost-effective as your customers will have to come to you. This will save on your fuel expenses too. In most cases, the parents of these children have their food packed and you will just need to feed the child. However, even if they do not provide you with that then you can make a little extra food at home and feed them that. You may even take additional charges for providing food. You can pay daily, weekly or monthly fees depending on your needs.
● Cooking classes
If you are good at cooking you could give cooking classes at home. These classes are a very convenient option as you can limit the number of classes based on your needs and you also get paid on the spot.
● Have a yard or garage sale
You can also organize a yard or garage sale to sell unused or mildly used items. This can be done at any weekend to get some extra bucks.
Home-based business ideas:
● Rent your garage home to earn money
If you have space in the garage, you can rent your garage to earn money out of it. If you have a big house and one part of the house is empty, you can rent a part of your home. This will be a great source of income
● Sell homemade products
You can sell homemade baked goodies. This will be more convenient for you if you have older children at home who can help. In a few main festival seasons, the demand for homemade goodies such as cookies and cakes rises. This allows you to get money by sitting at home and baking.
● Be a financial coach
During times when there is too much financial uncertainty, most people are looking for someone to fall back on. If you can become a financial coach, you can help people make better financial decisions and thereby make money. You can give an ad for this and open a financial class at your home premises.
You can also create a financial website of your own so that people can have the option of signing up with you and clearing their financial doubts.

Lastly,
we all know that due to a rapid increase in the price of basic amenities due to the COVID pandemic, life has become very difficult. It has become difficult to pay for basics, that any luxury is way beyond reach. Thus, a single earning member family structure can not quite provide much economic stability in today’s scenario.
So, both husband and wife must contribute towards the budget of the family. But if you want to be at home and also want to work from the comfort of your home, then there are many ways in which moms at home can make money. Also, if you have no job right now, you can easily embrace an online money-making opportunity.
However, in any circumstances, you should never give up hope. If you have no income and you are unable to manage any job, you can ask for GOVT. grants and financial help.
