Help my students figure out ways to make more money during this recession.

[Karla Darocas *New Frontier]

My father use to say - "When in an economic crisis - you must use your natural talents and cater to the rich".
He should know, as he has seen four recessions in his lifetime. He has lost jobs during economic downturns as well - but he managed to pay the mortage without fail. My dad has used all of his skills as a handyman, artist and golf guy - to bring in money throughout the years. I remember one year, when his job had forced him into a corner, he made stain glass lamps to sell to rich people. He also learned to make golf clubs and at age 75 became a master golf club maker. He is still bringing in money being a creative and handy person, and this is a good thing, as pensions are thin and costs are high.

So - my question to you all is this...
What can you tell my businss students to motivate and encourage them during this time of economic crisis, so that they can make money?

Thank you in advance
Karla Darocas

THE BEST JOB IN THE WORLD

Explore and report back
There’s so much to see and do, so you’ll have plenty to write about in your weekly blog. And with so much life above and below the water, you’re sure to capture some entertaining moments for your video diary and photo gallery. To keep you busy, Tourism Queensland will organise a schedule of travel and events on the Islands of the Great Barrier Reef. Your schedule could include sampling a new luxury spa treatment at qualia on Hamilton Island, trying out new snorkelling gear on Heron Island, or bushwalking on Hinchinbrook Island.

Feed the fish
There are over 1,500 species of fish living in the Great Barrier Reef. Don’t worry – you won’t need to feed them all.

Clean the pool
The pool has an automatic filter, but if you happen to see a stray leaf floating on the surface it’s a great excuse to dive in and enjoy a few laps.

Collect the mail
You’ll have some time on your hands, so why not join the aerial postal service for a day? It’s a great opportunity to get a bird’s eye view of the reef and islands.
