Taking Advantage of a Bad Economy

Nothing looks appealing these days. People are losing jobs, businesses are closing up, the stock markets are falling, so is anyone making money from a bad economy? The answer would be yes.

Investing in oil. Just kidding. The oil days are gone.

Here are some ways people are using the negative economy to their advantage:

1. Exchanging currency. People are investing in foreign currencies to their advantage.

2. Buying what people are dumping. - Stocks. Might be risky business, but I know many people who are picking up a lot of stocks at a dirt cheap price, hoping to sell if and when they make a rebound.

3. Investing in land. - Simple thing even Trump himself will tell. Land never grows. Right now the real estate market is collapsing, so people are picking up others' pain, turning it into personal gain and waiting for the economy to turn around to make a load of money on that bargain they invested in.

4. Buying businesses 1/2 off. - Basically taking advantage of the owner in crisis. Looking at a business that is in trouble financially; with the price one might pay, it might be profitable to the new owner, even in this economy.

and something that doesn't take too much start up capital:

5. Making Money Talking About the Poor Economy. - Starting a blog! A lot of people seem to be giving opinions and views on what they think of the economy. I read blogs that talk about the economy with ad's on them. Seems like the blog owners would be making money!
