5 ways teens can save (without feeling broke)
Small, practical habits that turn pocket money into real savings goals.
- Save first, spend later — move savings out the day money arrives.
- Give every goal a name and a number: “Laptop — ₹25,000”.
- Track subscriptions and cancel the ones you forgot about.
- Earn a little extra with a skill: tutoring, design, reselling.
- Celebrate milestones — 25%, 50%, 75% of the goal.
For parents
Matching your teen’s savings (say ₹1 for every ₹5 saved) is a simple way to teach how interest works.
