When you start earning a steady income for the first time, it’s easy to spend too much on luxuries or to take on debt. But it’s also the best time to set yourself on the path toward wealth. 4 simple tips could take you from living paycheck to paycheck to living the good life

1.Pay yourself

  • We never expect rainy days but they do come. Be prepared financially!

2. Know where your money goes.

  • Keep track of your spending habits. You can track your spending by old fashion pen and paper or one of the many apps available on your phone.

3. Pay your cheapest loans first.

  • One way to get out of debt fast is starting small. Look over your loans and find the lowest dollar amount and start there!

4. Self control.

  • You don’t have to eat out 7 days a week and those new shoes can wait. Invest in your future rather than you now.
