Study hard.
Get a part time job.
Apply for scholarships so you don't need a student loan.
If you can't pay for your schooling up front, take a year off to work, work, work and save the money so you don't need a student loan.
Start saving/investing 10% of your income from the start, even if that 10% is only a few dollars. Make it a habit and stick to it. Designate another10% to be given to charity. Make this a habit, too. Lean to live on 80% of your income. Learn to budget.
Don't use credit card unless *absolutely* necessary. If you do use it, pay it back as soon as possible; the next month preferably.
Be disciplined.
It doesn't depend on a specific occupation or specific company -- it depends on you. You can be a wealthy barber or kindergarten teacher as long as your disciplined about your spending, saving & investing.

Something I should have done years ago. Don't get me wrong I worked hard every day of my life (5 days week), blew money on lunch every day, cars, custom vans, holidays, parties, alcahol the latest gadgets and ended with applying for loans and making outstanding repayments. I had $20.000 by the age of 20 and blew the lot. NEVER INVESTED A CENT!!!!
