PART D_2

Nowadays, more and more people are investing their money. Some people often prefer to save their money in an investment bank. While others choose to invest in the stock market. However, saving and investing money could be challenging for most people especially to those who are average salary workers. For most of them, dividing their finances based on their daily needs is necessary. Their top priorities are often to pay bills, buy food, and the like. Because of that, they usually have very little money to save. That is why they carefully consider the best way to invest their money.
There are a lot of ways to save and invest money. However, it is important to keep in mind that investment will not make your money rise sharply, but rather it would grow your wealth consistently. The stock market is one of the most popular places to save money. When you buy a stock, you get to own a small part of the company you bought into. When company profits, they may pay you based on how many shares of stocks you own.
