Personal finance blog Get Rich Slowly has published an intresting (and must read article for any student) on how to save money whilst at college. The article give some extemely useful advice, I certainly wish I knew of it when I started college. Some of the highlights include:
"Save and then splurge. If you decide you must have that Xbox, then save for it. Wait until you can pay cash." and "Track your spending. Use a notebook, or use Quicken if you have
it. Good records will prevent you from getting overdrawn at the bank or
charging more than your credit limit. This habit also allows you to
detect spending patterns."
Go check it out, and let us know if you have any money saving tips of your own.
