if you have nothing left over after pay day, there is no way you can invest, either poorly or well.

the biggest thing youngsters have going for them is time. time to ride out market ups and downs, time to let the first dollars compound over and over again.
Mark my words...I believe GWiz will be a millionaire in 10 years. She has the best of both of her parents. My earning potential and my wife's savings and frugality. She starts her career well into the 6-figures, has zero debt, and doesn't spend a dime. And for the next year or so, she's living rent free.
