Focus on
Online learning
Rather than stewing about the dismal economy and unfavourable job market, individuals may find these conditions ideal for going back to school. This time 'round it's online rather than on-campus. Whether it's an accredited degree in nuclear engineering or filling a skills gap with part-time leadership courses, the goal is to kick-start a stalled career and access higher salaries. Prospective students should weigh the costs and the potential ROI.
Have you ever taken online courses?

Saving money
Remember: "A penny saved is a penny earned," as an American forefather might say. You don't have to invest to save money, just stop spending. These ten tips may not help you save enough for retirement, but they're a friendly reminder to avoid unnecessary spending. The average American woman owns eight pairs of jeans. If her goal is saving money, spinning for a ninth pair is out of the question-even if they're 75% off. Same goes for boys and their toys.
