Being a student is so hard nowadays. I've been spending a lot for school requirements and different activities related to education. I'm stuck with this saying "SAVING IS WASTING", thinking that with the little amount of money I have, should I put it on an investment or should I just save it for my future expenses or emergencies. I'm also living in a country in which there are limited side hustles I could do to earn extra for investment, so I'm troubled somehow.
There are two reasons why we save money, 1. For future use, while 2. For emergency, and as a student I don't think it's impossible not to save no matter the hardship as you never can tell what might happen tomorrow. But moreover, as a student, your primary responsibility s number one priority should be your education at the moment, of which It will be irresponsible of you to buy bitcoin now when you haven't bought most of your textbooks. So on the contrary, I will like to correct you that Saving has never been a waste and can never be a waste, as it will surely assist you someday in the future.
