Saving vs. Investing - it's basically the same thing
This in incorrect. Saving is basically keeping your money safe and not spending it but rather keep it for future usage. While on the other hand Investing is spending your money for investment . In term of losing it, you may/may not lose your initial investment since in "investing" people are entrusting their money to the other people
Save money is a bad idea, it like you lent your money to rich people, and make them more richer. Find a right way to invest your money, you can earn more.
Investing could result in losing your money as well. You will need more references on what you are investing though. It is not like every investment is a guarantee for a gain of interest
