Any time you make any amount of money, put 5% of it into a savings account. If you don't have a savings account, make one. If you can't make one, put the money somewhere safe in your house.
5% doesn't sound like a lot, and for broke/poor people it can often mean the difference between eating that day or not, but if you're able to do it, really seriously do it. I recently calculated where I'd be right now if I had done that, and I would have saved over $20,000 in the last 15 years if I had listened to my own stupid advice.
Also, wear moisturizing sunscreen every single day.
