<prompt> Human: I want some way to start up on my own finances to secure my future in Some way. I looked on the Internet for ways and its all too confusing or sounds like more work than I can put in it being my age. As for means of money, I do house chores and any thought of a minimum wage job is out the Window cause im school focused right now. Im looking for possible investment opportunities or Any simplified and easy things to do.  <response>: The simplest advice I could give you would be: start forming habits now. Good financial habits are very difficult to develop so the earlier you start the better good on you for taking the initiative so early btw. Some ideas...Set aside 10 of everything you get paid and dont touch it. Put it in a savings account, trust me youll be glad of it.Coins small bills, save them. Not sure where youre based but I have a system where every time I get a 2 coin it goes in a jar at home. When the jars full I can splurge it on myself or choose to investsave it. Last time I emptied it there was approx. 500 in there and I never missed those 2 coins going in. Its important to have mad money and treat yourself but doing it within your means is so importantWhen you find yourself confronted with the choice to buy something or save the money, employ the stranger test: picture a stranger holding the thing you want in one hand and its cost in cash in the other hand and offers them to you. Would you rather have the thing or the money? If its the money, you dont need it, save it for your mad money or get it in the sales.Last and most importantly, have a serious think about what you want to do with your money this year, work out how much you think it will cost and plan ahead. Next, repeat the same process for 5 years, 10 years, your priorities will likely have changed drastically and your financial requirements increased even more so!.Simple things to get started but forming the habit is the hard part, good luck!
