<prompt> Human: Ive recently landed my first real job doing what I love to do. I am a software development intern at a company a few miles away from my house. I am in a stable home, with little to no monthly expenses. Overall, I would say my life is pretty good, but admittedly, I could be doing much more to benefit my future. I have been browsing this sub for the past few days, and have been inspired to become more financially organized.Here are some stats about me:Work schedule: 8-5 Mon-Fri w 1hr lunch break. Normally doing 40 hrsweek, but sometimes 32-35. 10.50hrI also do all of the yard work for my Dads farm. 50week.Expenses:- Transportation: Thankfully, my parents pay for my insurance, but I do pay for gas.I make 2 full trips to work every day I go home on my lunch break, which totals to about 20 milesday.- Fun things: I do not have any friends in my hometown; I have a girlfriend who lives 30 miles away, and I visit her 1-2 times per week. In terms of food, I rarely go out to eat maybe once every few months.I do not have phone service. I have an internet connection at work and at my house, so theres little to no reason for me to buy it.Lately, I have been upgrading a lot of things for my setup I game on PC, which are nice to have, but I definitely do not need. My mindset has been Eh, Im making quite a bit of money, and Im still in high school, so who cares?. I want to change this mindset, as I think it may be unhealthy.In terms of what I plan on doing after high school. I plan on studying Computer Engineering or Computer Science at a university. I do not plan on working during college, so hopefully I can do something now to prevent that. I will not be receiving much financial aid, and my parents will not be paying for my student loans.What I have right now in terms of organization, is I have been saving 7537; of my paycheck, and doing whatever with the rest. Im making this post to hopefully receive suggestions on what I should be doing. Should I invest my money? Should I start a separate bank account for college savings? Im new and clueless on this stuff.  <response>: I think you should at least work 10-15 hours during college rather than completely relying on loans
