There are several reasons why it can be challenging for students to have meaningful savings:
- Limited income – Most students only have a low income stream from part-time jobs or stipends, providing little extra money to save.
- Debt payments – Many students have to dedicate a large chunk of their income to servicing student loan, credit card, or other debt payments.
- Tuition and academic costs – The high tuition and additional academic expenses like books, lab fees, etc. drain bank accounts quickly.
- Lack of budgeting skills – Students often haven’t learned budgeting best practices and end up spending impulsively rather than tracking expenses.
- Lifestyle inflation – Social situations and pressure can influence higher than necessary spending on dining out, entertainment, travel, etc.
- Unexpected expenses – Sudden costs for things like emergency travel, car repairs, medical bills etc. quickly derail savings.
- Lack of high-yield savings – Keeping funds in checking accounts rather than high-yield savings loses potential interest earnings.
- No 401k access – Students don’t have access to convenient payroll deduction retirement savings plans with employer matches.
- Perception of abundant future income – Younger students may incorrectly assume large future salaries will make saving easy later.
With guidance on budgeting fundamentals and smart saving/investing strategies, students can overcome these hurdles and build solid lifelong money management habits.
