Savings vs. Investing
Savings is money put away, that is not spent until an emergency arises. Investing is the purchase of assets with the hope of increasing future income. Savings is more liquid than investing and also provides the foundation for financial security. But, investing helps build wealth and is used to pay for long term purchases.
Reasons to Make A Savings Plan
- Helps save for big purchases
