I'm 18, going to be out of high school this year and I want to know my what are some of the little tips I can do to make money, put money away for the future, and get off on the right foot going into college.
ALSO Parents are divorced and work relatively shit jobs so money from them is dismal at best, also want to be able to make money to help them in the future (mom will retire at god damn 85-90 if I dont)
As for college im decently smart and iv been doing and getting small scholarships since about a year ago, so college money im alright.
I'm pretty smart, I've decided im going to cut off the video games and distractions in my life, and it's time to get serious.
