Crash Market From Profiting

Certainly one can make money in "hard times" and during a financial crash. It depends on when and how, and how much actual liquidity one has. The old adage "it takes money to make money" is absolutely true.

One way to cash in on a crash is to buy up stocks that are devalued in the crash, and hold them as the market makes its way back up to "normal" levels. You've made a bundle! But it may take years or even decades to realize the gain. And once again, if you don't already have the cash or liquidity to buy the stock, it's just a pipe dream.

Other ways are to invest in financial instruments that are crash-proof, investing in actual goods rather than "paper" or "promises," and investing in precious metals which seem to become more valuable when the "paper" becomes no good.

There are several excellent outlines for making money in hard times, a Google search will yield several hundred results. It's finding the advice that makes sense and that works for your circumstances that may be difficult.
