Having to shy away from "spending temptations" during your high school years is a difficult undertaking but at the same time is character-building. You will unconsciously and consciously develop a sense of responsibility over your present and your future. Sure, high school is the time to be merry and happy but it is also the time to stop and discern how you would like your future to be. This does not mean that you will entirely distance yourself from little indulgences in high school. Just make sure that you control your spending and know the right occasion to splurge on. Saving will give you a head start When you start saving from a young age, for example, such as when you are in high school, you will be able to accumulate a good amount of money for college. The money might not be necessarily enough to cover 100 percent of your expenses such as the tuition fee (that might be far too reaching) but it will be able to cover at least for paying entrance examinations or the cost of college visits. Be careful to not spend your savings for unnecessary things such as partying or clothes or even a down payment on a car. Practicing discipline is vital to making sure that the money you have saved from your daily allowance or from birthday money or from Christmas money will be allotted to your needs when college year starts. Saving will lift a good amount of financial burden from your parents Your parents will be proud and glad that you are thinking ahead by saving for college. For sure, they are already thinking of how to support your college education on a daily basis. Showing them how much you have saved up will make them a bit more confident to let you go to a college of your choice that is far away from home. They will also feel that you can take care of yourself and they will be reassured that the money they will be investing on your education will be put to good use because from the very start, you have already made the necessary preparation, which is saving.
