Whatever you do, don't buy expensive electronics, especially on credit. They will be outdated before you know it.
Realize that the cutting edge electronics that you buy today won't be worth jack shit in three years time.
Conversely, old electronics still work relatively fine but are nearly free.
Ergo, purchase electronics and then sell them at an earlier time.

but they might be worth a lot in 30 years if you take good care of them!
