If you want to save your money all you have to do is to invest and make your own bank account so that you have a money that can use in the future.
I agree to you. If you really want to save money for a long period of time I suggest that open a bank account and store there the money you want to save. Then do not spend it on the thongs that do not really matter at all. Be wise in spending it all the time. And if ever you want to your save money to grow then maybe youcan try joining some investments.
