You have moved away from your teens and that means, no more pocket money from parents. Living it off on your own earnings is something to be proud off and also quite stressful. Here comes the real money management. On one side there’s nobody telling you what you need to spend on and on the other side you are hardly left with money to spend. Sadly this is the state every month and definitely you’re doing something wrong. But what? Here’s the answer.

1. Working for less, not an option

no

no

Never settle for less and always respect your worth. When you’re young then many times you’re taken lightly and not offered a good pay for your hard work. The key is to never compromise for less. Carry yourself with confidence and always stand up for what you believe in.

2. Control your leisure expenses

It’s quite easy to get swayed away by all the cool and expensive things around you. But before you splurge on something super expensive, ask if you really need it. Buying something very expensive will only strain your funds, making you feel money crunched.

3.Change your perspective

A little change in your perspective can also bring out a big change in your life. Trust me, carrying a positive attitude in life will help you in achieving things. Remember, a pinch of hard work and positive outlook is the recipe for success.

4.Look for a startup

If you are in the creative field, then you should definitely look up for opportunities. Think of some innovative ideas and I am sure you are well aware about the success of startups these days.

5. Get your own homemade lunch to work

You know how much we spend on junk food? Well, it’s tasty but it is too expensive and even makes us fat. In fact, soon India might become a target of fat tax too that will make you drain more of your money. Do you really want that?

6. Cutt off your beauty treatments, save for a special occasion

It’s okay to pamper yourself but only sometimes. I am not saying don’t maintain yourself, just avoid regular appointments of manicure and pedicure. You will save some serious money.

7.Cut off on expensive alcohol drinks and night out

Cutting down expensive alcohol is a big challenge but to be rich and for saving some money, you will definitely do that, right?
