Beat inflation, become a knitter
According to The Guardian, there are a number of personality profiles that mean you'll be living with a lower inflation rate than other people.....
KnitterNobody who uses heating oil - up 88% in the past 12 months - is going to come within hailing distance of a 3.8% inflation rate. Only those who can spend the summer months knitting enough jumpers to insulate all family members and leave enough to barter for lemonade and the occasional lamb chop will survive.
And just so's you know- you'll also be ok if you like lentils, walk every where, don't go out, buy a lot of furniture or live with your parents....

Not only do I knit, I also eat lentils and walk everywhere! After a couple of months of recession, maybe I'll feel a millionaire.

I knit, eat lentils, walk everywhere, don't go out as much as I used to and haven't bought any furniture in an age..... my purse feels no heavier yet.....

Umm, I'm not sure I could cope with living with my parents, but the rest of it sounds pretty good to me. Especially if the lemonade is home made.
