Save. You can't really build up any sort of strong financial position without first having developed the saving habbit. Start by saving 10% of your monthly income and putting it aside. Try to get this up to 20%, 30% and ideally 50%. As you grow in your career be very aware, and try to avoid of what happens to most people on the planet and that is: as income rises, so do expenses.

If you have savings, you'll be in a much better position to take risks with things like investments or even becoming an entrepreneur.
