Summer Preparation for College in the Fall

So, you have a summer job. That’s great but what to do with the money earned? Save it. You will want to do fun things once in college and you’ll want to ration how you spend your money. There are those pizza parties at midnight and weekend outings to local locations that will be a great break from studying. So, let’s say you make about $3,000. This means you can only spend about $300 a month or $75 a week. That may seem like plenty, right? It will go very quickly if you don’t put yourself on a budget and put on the spending brakes. Pace your spending so you don’t run out by January.
