Hello
A couple of my friends have said to me this week that they don't know how much more of this lockdown they can bear. One is a musician who has hardly worked since March. The other is a single mum who is being driven to distraction trying to home-school her child and stop her getting depressed, while doing her best to get some cash in each week.
It feels really tough for so many of us at the moment. It's not so bad for everyone, of course, but even if things are jogging along all right at home, there's still a part of all of us that would like to get out, be free and be normal!

So what can we do?
Well, I'm always saying this, but i do think that the more we can work together, share things (particularly our time and skills), support each other and even just keep communicating, the easier it will be for all of us. You know this already, of course. You're a good person...you're a MoneyMagpie!
But anyway, that's one of the reasons why I held a free webinar last Thursday on How to Live for Free. We had forty lovely people attending and had quite a laugh! We'll publish a big article about it this week so look out for that.
I'll be doing a free webinar each month now so keep an eye out for the next one (spoiler alert: it'll be about making money on the side!). I'll be doing a few posh paid ones too all about investing so I'm looking forward to seeing you at those too if you can come along. We'll send out information and joining details in the next newsletter.
But for this week, we've curated a newsletter for you that has a bit of everything: staying healthy at home and spotting deepfakes (all about staying in) and then how to make money dog walking and getting work abroad post Brexit...hey, we can dream!
See you next week. Love Jasmine :-)

Many of us are back working from home (and home schooling) in the third lockdown of this pandemic.
Even the most stoic of people are starting to let the isolation and monotony of working from home get to them.
Keep healthy (mind and body) to stay happy! Here's how...
