Moving some of Your Savings to Fund Your Investments

Saving and investing are different, although savings are often the source of funds for investing. Savings are a percentage of your income that you put aside regularly, usually at a low interest rate. Normally saving accounts have a very low interest rate under 2%. You can easily access savings, and often theyre insured by a financial institution. Some saving plans do have penalties, so read your account rules before withdrawing funds.
