I've been there myself, struggling to make ends meet and feeling overwhelmed by all the financial responsibilities that come with being a student in school. but I learned that by setting achievable saving goals and sticking to them, I could not only alleviate my financial stress, I can even be able to earn more on the side and also feel more in control of my life, not just saving, setting goals as a student is a most if you want to avoid stress in the long run. by developing good saving habits early on, you'll be better equipped to handle whatever expenses come your way even after school.

When it comes to saving money, every little bit counts. Even if you can only save a few dollars a week, it's still better than nothing. start by setting a small goal, like saving $10 per week and hit it, it will boost your morale. As you get used to saving, you can gradually increase your goal.

Then you should definitely set a specific goal, It's easier to save when you have a specific goal you want to achieve in mind. whether you're saving for a new laptop, a new phone, or just building an emergency fund, make sure you know exactly what you're saving for. know where your money is going is the first step to saving more of it. take a look at your income or monthly allowances and expenses and create a budget that allows you to save a portion of your income each month easily.

If you have trouble sticking to your saving goals like I do, consider automating your savings. many banks will allow you to set up automatic transfers from your savings account. if you do it that way, you won't even have to think about saving because it'll just happen automatically.
