I really wish now that I had saved my money when I was younger. Now I realize that money is so much more necessary as a teenager than as a kid. I used to buy the dumbest things and now I'm facing some serious regret. Over the course of 3 months I blew $1,000 on food, clothes, etc. Now that I can drive I am wishing I had not because all of that could have gone towards owning my own car. I am not mad at myself for spending all that money though. I learned an important lesson about spending that I think will influence the rest of my financial decisions in my life. From this, I now know that saving money is the best choice and that you do not need to waste your money on things you do not need such as clothes and the occasional Doordash order.
