One of the best ways for a student to save for future fortune is by going through investment, as an investment generates more profits. But it could be a little hard for someone who is not getting finances from family or relatives and that makes me a 0erfect example. As much as I love to invest, I find it difficult based on what I expressed above.
It is not necessarily so. Sure, if you are billionaire, you definitely should not sit on your money, and you should invest most of it in various assets and shares. But being a student, and not from a wealthy family, I think it's better for you to not play this games, the games rich folks are playing. The thing is, they can afford losing a million here and a million there, but, being in your position, you can't. For them losing a million may be like just a bump on the road, and for you it might be the end.
