Hey everybody :]

[Cowsie]

Hey guys. My names Tom, but you can call me Cowsie. Im 24, and I'm single, also no kids. Im in school right now for my associates, working on getting my DVM. Moneys tight, and I dont have a glamorous job. Ive been saving up tiny bits when and where I can. Really interested in mastering frivolous spending. Otherwise, I feel like the games mine for the taking. I just, well, have zero knowledge about any investing or financial advancement other than simply saving. Hoping to learn.

Otherwise, hi! :]

Welcome to the forums :) Spend some time poking around, get involved in threads that catch your interest and ask if you have any questions, this is a great community to learn from! You might want to check out the "Throw down the gauntlet" subforum for lots of challenges and support in reducing spending.

Welcome! The forum is a great place to dig deeper and talk with people ahead of you. The peer pressure to grow a bigger mustache is quite helpful :)

Hey guys!
Just wanted to say thanks for the insight! I look forward to digging a little deeper everyday and seeing what we can all accomplish together and individually!

Welcome aboard, Cowsie! I'd say you're already ahead of the curve by being here at such a young age. There's plenty to learn about saving and investing  here. Best of luck!

But if you want to learn frugal spending... you've come to the right place

Congratulations on taking the first steps: seeking knowledge.

You really don't need a lot of investing savvy. Just open an account at Vanguard and start investing in VTSAX. At your age, how much you invest right now is less important that the act of starting and making it a regular routine. Then, as you master frugal spending, ratchet your amount up a little at a time. You'll be a millionaire in no time!
