Ask YC: What do you do when unemployed?

2 points by popat 17 years ago | 3 comments

Recession and lay-offs are on the way and i just wonder what do people do to be creative and motivated: reading, writing, learning new skills, try to be self-employed, develop a web-app etc, Yoga.

What do you do?

Exercise, if you haven't been already, and try doing something of your own if conditions are right, or you can make them be right (by living cheaper for instance).

Develop inexpensive habits like visiting the library, exercising outside, and volunteering in the community.

If you have family to support, get employed.
