When it comes to savings, we should always start early (as early as one can), save little and save often. I am a beginner investor myself and also started around my mid 20s. Perhaps, this article can help you get started on building your wealth. It talks about building healthy saving & spending habits and just being mindful: https://bit.ly/Wealth20s

Oh and one more thing, you may want to consider exploring alternative investment vehicles such as gold. I personally found investing in gold super interesting particularly as I want my money to grow but without the volatility that comes with investing in high-risk options with the added advantage of liquidity for when I need cash. This might be important for you since you will be taking your degree soon. Here's an article which will help you decide which vehicle is best for you: https://bit.ly/5GrowthOptions

Hope this helps and all the best!
