There are some great financial strategies that make a sound financial life achievable. There are also some mistakes that can slow down or stop a young adult from getting started on a good financial path.

1. Avoid bad debt.

It’s easy to live beyond your means. Credit cards can be a convenience, but in the age of debit cards, there isn’t much need for credit cards. If you use credit cards, pay them off completely each month. Doing this builds your credit history in a positive way, so when you’re ready to borrow money at a reasonable level for a good reason – your first home, a reliable car – it’ll be easier. Also, don’t stress about student loans unless they’re at astronomical levels. Student loans can help get a better earning foundation. They’re cheaper than credit cards and for many people right out of college or trade school, the interest is tax deductible.
