The main obligation must be to meet routine monthly expenses for basic needs, because managing savings is not an obligation for everyone for different economic classes. They may be able to set aside part of their income for savings even though the allocation of savings is not routine from monthly income, but those with low incomes must get out of the safe zone to increase higher income because the need for funds to buy basic necessities is increasingly expensive.

Relative poverty data from various countries is getting worse due to the impact of the global economy experiencing inflation which influences various aspects of price and service increases.

To be able to have savings, of course we have to be able to manage our finances well and we have to be able to meet our main needs and set aside some of the income we have so that we can save and it is difficult for those with low incomes to be able to manage their finances well and look for other sources of income. Of course it is very important if we still have low incomes, as you said, it is absolutely true that the price of basic needs continues to increase and it is difficult for those of us with low incomes to fulfill them and one solution is just to have several sources of income to be able to meet the basic needs we need.

We shouldn't manage our savings like to tap into it gradually. Saving is meant to do a particular thing once and not for daily or weekly catering expenses. What should be tapped into is the mecellinous. Which is the money that we keep aside for little and minor expenses after taking care of our monthly needs, emergency funds, and investments.

Savings can be money we gather after a while that we use to start a business or achieve one or two properties. It could be appliances, or landed properties to mention a few.
