If you want to save money you can turn your savings into any altcoin, then transfer it to a hard wallet and take it away after a certain time you take it out.
Agreeing with him.Invest in a stable alt coin(like dimcoin), investing in bitcoins will be like a gamble.I had around 150$ in altcoins in the August of 2016 and then I cashed out 700$ in January
I got lucky.But my intention was to make profit and not to save.If you just want to save what you have, then buy gold.
And if you are looking for some profit, then crypto is the right choice.But there will be risk too.
Happy saving!
