Savings is a good thing, but it does not guarantee you being rich. I think saving helps you to plan for the future. The only way I believe you can get rich is turning your savings into investment, because investments make you rich. People are scared of taking risk, and investment has got to do with taking risk. Show me a wealthy person and I will show you their investments.
In a nutshell all I am trying to explain is not condemning saving, but rather letting you know that saving is never enough to make you rich, but investments does.
It all depends on how much you are able to safe if it could get you rich. Saving actually can make anyone rich if they have proper plan for what they are saving for. I have seen so many friends that started small saving what is left after running their normal expenses. If you are going to get rich by saving peanuts, then the sky might not be your limit, maybe in your next world.
Many of these millionaires and billionaires we are seeing does not started with peanuts, impossible and I don't want any motivational speaker to input the false impressive. No one can get to a start of being a millionaire if they don't have a backup or someone that is able to show them the way that will create more connections. We can likewise save and make good money from investment we have injected funds into with ease. That is if the investment is actually a profitable one.
