Knowing how to save will still help you to your goal. Here are some easy to follow tips:

Budgeting : Knowing how to properly manage whatever amount of money lands in your wallet each payday needs to be one of the major goals of a debt-free life. You have to evaluate yourself to know what type of budgeting will suit you and your lifestyle. Do you need a daily budget program? How about a weekly or a monthly one? Your cash-flow will be better monitored if you list ALL of the your expenditures and actual spending.

Brown bagging should become a common practice if you are to make yourself debt-free quicker. Now if you have not fallen for the culprit yet and you are just so not into the food you prepare yourself, consider a compromise. Instead of bringing a lunch box of some sort, learn to drink your office coffee so that you have enough moolah for your lunch.

Distinguish Evil Debt Forms : There are essentially two kinds of debt. The good one is the kind of debt with which the item that caused your debt can be sold and the proceeds can help you repay the debt. The bad one is a loan that has a diminishing value.

An example of a good debt is a home loan, that is if such home loan, particularly a home equity loan will add value to your home. But if you acquire such loan for unnecessary items, you are doomed. An example of a bad debt is clothes, unless you're a celebrity of course, where you can auction off your clothes when you get tired of them.

School loans are not advisable either because it will most likely be hard for someone to pay off his or her debt even after landing a good job because there are various expenses that will arise when working life starts.

So, how do you stay debt-free or at least be able to manage your debts well through the above mentioned information? The answer is simply to avoid bad debts!
