Definitely it is better to save money than to invest.,because in savings money you already have an assurance that your money is secure. so if your money was secured then you have a Peace of mind, otherwise if you invest your money to someone you even don't know, then the rest of your mind was on your money, you always gonna think if whats your money was going on, and most of the time, investment turns to scam, and that is the saddest part .
