2. Life in college campus is just so awesome. You
don't have to worry about the fee amount, loans,
credit card bills, savings or debts. Everything
seems really easy, and it is especially when you
are inside the campus, but as soon as you do
your convocation cap, you will realize that from
this moment the life will be taking a 360 degree
turn. Hard work and dedication in getting that
degree will now be tested in the mainstream,
and it is really tough out there. It is extremely
exciting, yet quite scary.
3. Most of the Millennials prepare themselves for this
unavoidable phase of their lives. They
understand that after a few years, they will
become financially independent, and the family
support won't be the same. This is the real
world, where you are responsible for all your
decisions. But at a young age, it is hard to
obtain proper knowledge about financial
matters; it is natural to mess up with stuff at the
beginning. Here are a few things which can help
the Gen Y to have a good control over their
financial state.
4. Youngsters who prepare themselves for such
situations beforehand focus on a few things.
They make sure to save some amount of the
emergency savings, so that they don't fall short
of money or seek any help from their family.
They avoid over expenditures on shopping and
entertainments. They avoid the use of credit
cards to save unnecessary expenses.
5. Here are some more ways which can help the
Gen Y in maintaining their financial health.
Always set a goal, it is never too late to plan
your finances. Your goal should not be saving a
lot of money, but creating the sources from
where you get a regular income. Work overtime
at least for a few years so that you can get
some extra income. With these earnings, you
can reach your goal in lesser time.
6. Start saving for retirement now. If you think it is
quite early to think about retirement, then this is
wrong. A little bit of saving is good, but start as
soon as possible. Prioritize your expenses. It is
always good to control your expenditures on
unnecessary goods. Value your money by
spending it at the right place. You are young and
energetic, make good decisions and become
financially smart.
