Concept:
Saving means setting aside money instead of spending it. It’s a way to prepare for future needs, emergencies, or larger goals like going on a trip or buying something special. Saving helps build financial stability and independence, even from a young age.
Example Illustration:
• You earn $10 per week.
• If you spend all $10, nothing is left.
• But if you save $3 each week, after 10 weeks you’ll have $30—no borrowing needed.
