I’m turning 23 in 5 days and I want this year to be the year I actually get financially literate. I live with my parents and they’re covering things like insurance till the end of the year, so my expenses are low and I know this is a privileged window I shouldn’t waste. I’ll be moving to the UK to study and I’ll be earning in GBP for a few years so I want to be smart with my money.
I don’t earn a lot yet but I want to build good habits now with stuff like saving, budgeting, investing (when appropriate) and not being dumb with money.
For those a bit older:
-
What financial advice would you give someone in their early 20s?
-
What do you wish you had started earlier or done differently at my age?
Trying to play the long game. Please help a girlie out. Any advice appreciated.
