Another step is to look at your income and see if you're making as much as you think you are. Third, start saving money automatically by having a certain amount transferred from your checking account to your savings account. Each month. This will help you build up your savings so that you have some cushion in case of emergency. Now talking about emergency, start an emergency fund. This can be again a savings account that is only used for emergencies

I've been around for a little bit longer, but I think the gist of everything is the earlier we start, the better it is for all of us. And if we start a little late, we can still start
