If you spend all that you earn, you would still be penniless regardless of the amount that you earned. But if you are to save at least 10% of your income , you would have saved approximately about one year of your income in 10 years time. Indeed, saving is the seed to become riches. If you want to become rich, you have got to make a right choice. You need to decide how many seed or how much you savings, you want to start planning as of today.

I have always advocated for saving 20%. But 10% is a great start. One KEY thing when it comes to saving is not just putting the money away, but putting it in the right places. Money makes money, and the more interest and dividends you can get, the more valuable the savings are.

@victorkrish This is very true. The problem with keeping money only in the bank is that it actually loses money. The problem with typical savings accounts is that the interest paid does not beat inflation, so one year later due to inflation, the value of the saved dollars is actually less.
