It helps us get the things we want. I want a skateboard. If I save a little money every week, I can buy it instead of asking my parents for money.
It helps us learn to use money wisely. We’ll not easily spend money on useless toys or snacks. Instead, we can save money for the things we really need, such as books, stationery, and so on.
It prepares us for the future. Whether we hope to go on school trips or pursue further education at a good school, the plan can help us make the dreams come true.
