5 personal-finance tips for young people
- Start saving early to have a good start on building retirement savings before beginning a family and career.
- Understand that credit cards are not a safe net, using it may lead to debt.
- Buying life insurance when you’re young ensures you’ll get lower premiums and potentially avoid costs if it has a grandfathering clause.
- The cost of buying a car might mean you’ll have to delay buying a house. Look at your budget carefully and test drive additional payments for 6 months if you think you can do both.
- Plan how to avoid impulse spending to avoid debt and distress. Set a waiting period proportional to the price of what you want to buy. Anything worth having is worth waiting for.
