Get ready for adulthood

Get ready for adulthood

If you are going to embark on your last year of education, then you have probably already made some considerations about how to best start an adult everyday with a full-time job. Get started right now by following the tips below.

A-box and union

Although time may seem precious as a student, it is smart to sacrifice some hours to examine your options of trade unions and unemployment funds. When you join both an A-box and a union, you invest in and secure your future. The trade union will already be able to help you now if you have a student job, while the A-box first becomes really relevant when you have finished your education. All students want to get a job when they are graduated, but it is far from a picture of reality. So look to sign up as soon as possible. Many unions and A-boxes have full or partial free subscriptions to students, so there is no excuse. Read more about A-boxes in our article Become wise on A-boxes in no time .

Save your money for a big investment

If you walk past a real estate agent, it is easy to spot a lot of " houses for sale " in their windows. Once again, this may seem like a problem that lies far in the future, but it may be important for you to consider the possibilities right now. For example, if you want to buy an apartment, you must be able to pay five percent of the value of the apartment yourself before you can borrow the rest of the money from your bank. Therefore, it can be useful to put some money aside already now - especially if you live in a larger city, where it can be difficult to move from a dorm room to an ordinary residence. Colleges rarely allow you to stay after a completed education.
