Work two jobs, one for at least 2 years (stable employment with health insurance), the other could be temp jobs, or a side job working overnight in a pool room in a decent neighborhood (or something like that).Pay for sack lunches, homemade dinner and breakfast, car insurance, an inexpensive car with a good A/C and heat, holiday gifts for favorite relatives, and stay with parents for free (or a very small charge).Parents hate you and say you can't live there, get a cheap room in a nice neighborhood with similar aged people.Bankroll up your cash reserves as much as you can.Read Rich Dad Poor Dad.
