Declaration of Financial Independence

In order:

Save more for retirement. (I'm putting aside 5% of my gross pay, and the only reason it's that low is because I'm a civil servant and thus have an indexed pension.)

Invest in things that pay dividends. (Gold may be pretty, but it's just a rock until you can find somebody to buy it from you. Put your money to work instead.)

Share your good fortune - donate to the charity of your choice.

Indulge yourself. You won't be this young ever again - now is the perfect time to do that special thing you've always wanted to do.
