Do you know the difference between saving and investing? Saving means keeping your money safe for a short-term goal. For example, you can save your allowance in a piggy bank to buy a toy next month. Investing is different. When you invest, you use your money to try to grow it over time. You can invest by buying stocks, which are tiny pieces of a company. Investing always has some risk — you might earn more money, or you might lose some. But with patience, investing can help your income grow over time. Save for short goals. Invest for the future!
