Spend less. Lots of people assume that the key to financial sucess lies in earning more but in fact it's spending less. You might think there is nowhere that you can reduce your spending but you would be surprised. Try writing a spending diary. Keep a diary in your bag exclusively to list your spending and write down every penny and I mean every penny down to the last cup of coffee or newspaper. After a couple of months you will be able to analyse your spending patterns and see areas were you can cut back without compromising your lifestyle. If you live in the UK try signing up to http://www.moneysavingexpert.com which is Martin Lewis's website. He has loads of tips on saving money.

i know exactly how you feel!
if you open a savings account, or even just buy a piggy bank, and each time you get a little money (wether it's £50 or 5p!) put as much as you can spare into it.
it builds up in no time, but you have to be strict with yourself, and go without a few luxury items for a while. |

gozaine nailed it with her answer. The spending diary really works if you keep it up because you start to question every purchase. Once you've saved, start investing it. If you're in the US, start taking advantage of things such as a 401(k) or an IRA that will reduce your taxes. |

call vanguard on their 800 number, they are a huge mutual fund investment company. let them once a month take money out of your checking account and put it into your investment account. you don't have to know anything at all about investing, they will do all of the work for you. if you do this your whole life you have a very good chance of being a wealthy person some day. and you dont need to know a thing about investing, they do it all for you. |
