Just on thread this morning 
A skilled worker doesn't go to work without tools , money is a tool and when put to work it grows and brings much returns but if not put to work it reduces value.
A friend locked up 20$ for three years and when he wanted to make use it, 20$ couldn't afford a good pair of shoes, he regreted not investing it on something, even if it was generating 0.5$ at the end of every month it would generated 0.5 into 36 months which would have amounted to 7.2$ extra making it 27.2$ and that would have gotten him a good pair of shoes.
Money losses value when it sits idle because it's not invented to sit idle it's made to work for its owner, to be productive money must be put to use.
When money works it creates more opportunities for the owner and this helps the owner to grow faster financially.
The educational system today has added management of finance in the education curriculum after seeing the nagative effect that not allowing money to stay idle has caused for some families and countries in extension.
Yes teachers advise students as little as a toddler to start saving and invest as early as possible.
Money shouldn't be sleeping for any reason
No amount is little
Some people think that you must have it big before you think of investing but that's not true, the simple maths I made about a friend with 20$ shows how far investment can go no matter how little.
Determination and self discipline is just the key to start, most people will keep on procrastinating, some are scared of losing what they already have but that is the worst decision so far.
Experiences has proven that people who gained financial freedom today started with just a little years back, working money gradually encourages financial freedom not set back.
When money is stored in the bank without it working it has an effect on generational wealth, the future generations will feel the effects, the financial situation of the upcoming generation is determined by the extensive work that money did in this generation.
Never seen money as paper see it as a tool
Some cities are miles away from each other financially because of how they used their income years back, most facilities and employment opportunities that people long for and enjoy now is the product of money from years back, the countries that are not doing well financially history here proven that this happens because the leaders years back hoarded money and this increased inequality and caused financial setback for the country which affects every citizen of that country.
When money works it reduces dependency on people, most people who depend on others to survive basically never put their money to work, they just eat everything as it comes in and that discourages them from taking up responsibility in life and such ones can't make any financial decisions.
When money works the quality of lives changes, those countries where people run to for vacations and Healthcare has high quality of lives and well equipped healthcare facilities because they put money to work.
We can say that when we allow money to work no matter how small it helps to build legacy of country and that of individuals because money is a tool for growth.
Sustainance, empowerment and transformation comes through the hard work of money
