This is a good thought mate.. investing money doesn't really take overnight.. sometimes it may take days or years before you can make a profit out from it. People like me who is not that rich also not taking too much risks when it comes to investing just want to make at least a little money to make savings.
Exactly. There is no such thing as a get rich quick scheme. Which is why, whenever you see an investment site that claims high yields per year, you should proceed with caution and if considering to invest into it, try to do so with the minimum amount possible in order to reduce to risk of loss. That being said, the best way to invest, is by purchasing Gold or any other rare commodity or asset, as usually scarcity is what makes something very valuable in the long term, and you would've made ROI whenever you decide to sell it sometime in the future.
Now, if taking the path to save, you can always take 5 to 10% of your earnings and put it on Bitcoin or a savings account in a bank in order to have to funds stored safely, in case something unexpected happens in the future. Just my opinion.
