Saving and Investing Money

I just talked to my cousin who has a son working abroad and I told her to teach his kid in saving some of her earnings. It’s hard to earn money these days but it’s especially difficult when you’re far from your family. I’m sure people working abroad will agree to my statement that it’s indeed hard when you’re not with your family. Anyway I told her it’s best to invest some of his son’s saved money on something tangible to ensure return of investment. He can invest in gold bullion and have it deposited safely in a bank so when the time comes for major expenses he can count on it to help him with finances.
