[quote=Anonymous]Start putting in max 401k (or equivalent) from the beginning. If you don’t have access to one, send a percentage of your paycheck (10-15%) to a Fidelity or Vanguard type of account to invest for retirement. Do ROTH when you can. Pay of credit card every month. Do not float anything. Live at home or with roommates or in a group house until you have saved enough for an emergency fund and a down payment for a house. Beg, borrow, steal what you can to furnish your first room/apartment/house. For starters, go to the dorms when students move out and pick around what is left around the dumpsters. You won’t believe the stuff people leave. Don’t buy a new car until you can pay cash for it. Buy a good used car or use what was given to you. Learn how to take care of of it. Pack your lunch 4 days a week. Learn to cook. [/quote]
