I was given 10 shares of Exxon as a high school graduation gift and have been buying them ever since. I buy direct online. My wife inherited quite a large number of Exxon stock has has been buying them since as well. It's just an easy solid place to invest a bit.

I was given 10 Apple for college graduation and have kind of done the same although not as much. Which I could kick myself for.

All I can say is save as much however you can and live within your means. I don't mean live cheap. Enjoy the fruits of your labors after you have saved.

If I was 30 years old I'd buy the cheapest land out in the country I could find. Plant pine. Sell for lumber in 5 year increments and replant. Lumber is expensive as hell. Requires no maintenance. It just sits there.
