Save and invest now!
Start by saving at least 5-10% of your salary! The day your salary comes in, take aside 5-10% of the total and save it. If you earn RM2,500, then you put aside RM125-250 or whatever you can afford to start with.
Now to make your savings work for you, you need to invest it. There are many investment options available including Fixed Deposits, EPF, Amanah Saham, REITS, ETF, Unit Trust Funds, and Stocks.
