First, you can spend your own money to do what you want.
Economically independent college students can spend their own money to do what they want, which is a very fulfilling thing. For example, if you travel, spend money to learn a musical instrument that you like very much. Even if you like a city very much, you can reward yourself for staying in that city for two months without spending your parents' money.
Second, let the people around you envy.
Most college students are provided by their parents, so many things are subject to their parents, just like a child who has not grown up. And economically independent college students spend their own money without being subject to their parents, which makes people feel more independent and mature, so they are envied. Because of the benefits they enjoy and the envious eyes of others, they are more motivated to make money and form a positive cycle of making money.
Third, have the strength to provide better material for the people you love.
Economically independent college students have the strength to provide better materials for their relatives. For example, for parents, when most college students still need their parents' support, they can already spend their own money to buy things for their parents and begin to be able to repay their parents' kindness, which is a very happy thing for them and their parents. For the object, when in love, it is no longer necessary to spend parents' money to buy each other a beloved gift, but to spend their own money, which is a very good feeling for college students.
