Lived at home until I was 25 - there’s no way I would have been able to reach this milestone if I hadn’t lived at home. 3.

I had spending awareness - I was intentional with my money and knew what was coming in and going out. 6. No debt - I avoided all high-interest debt. 7. I planned ahead - I looked at what I would need to spend over a 12-month period and saved for those occasions in advance, so I knew exactly how much spare money I had left over. #moneytips #moneysavingtips #PersonalFinance #isa
