[quote=Anonymous]Live BELOW your means for as long as you can. I would advise you treat yourself to something small every once in a while so that you are not tempted to blow it all on something useless later. When I graduated, I worked with a woman who said people who have money sometimes feel like they have a hole in their pocket. If they spend just a little, that satisfies that need. I paid off my school loans (putting extra towards it) and would occasionally treat myself to some jewelry. In five years, I had paid off all my loans (granted, I didn't have 100 K in loans), and had saved up some money for a down payment (about 10%). Pay off the School loans first. And try to save up an emergency fund (6 months worth of expenses is ideal). [/quote]
