The most interesting part is to
- Eat in cookhouse instead of canteen. Yeah, the food isn’t that nice but it’s free. If you really can’t stand it, then limit the canteen to once or twice per week.
- If you want to RSO, go to a polyclinic. Show your 11B and you don’t have to pay.
- Plan your budget realistically. If you’re the type who likes to go out to party on weekends then expect to save less. If you just prefer to chill at home then you’ll be able to save more. Take into account the cost of transportation as well.
- If you stay in, you save a lot of money on train and bus rides. If you stay out, get the concession pass if it’s worth it. Saving a few dollars every month is still better than saving none.
- Aim to save a certain percentage per month, depending on your spending habits. I managed to save 40% or so per month as my allowance increased, but if you’re just a REC or PTE than try to hit 20% or so.
- Don’t have a girlfriend
