I do not have a savings account and I do not plan to open any kind of savings account. I prefer trading in assets and making money by trading in assets rather than earning interest.

It's not even worth keeping money to save in a bank account so it is better to save a minimum amount or emergency amount that you can withdraw when you need

I really do not like interest because it is prohibited in my Holy religion of Islam. Having said that, interest-based economies never gain success. The US federal reserve has been increasing interest for a long time, but the conditions of the US economy is getting worse by the passage of every day.

Yes, I have money in savings account and fixed deposit account. For savings account, I get about 2.5-3% interest rate. For 6 month term deposit, the interest rate is 6%.

Since the federal reserve has increased interest so much, this has impacted poor countries across the world. At a lower level, earning interest could also have an impact in the Economy. I prefer trading and earning profits rather than earning Interest. Trading us far much more beneficial than earning interest.
I am getting around 4% interest on my savings and since I have an FD too so around 7% on that one

Many people do not realize that earning interest is actually useless. What is the point of earning just 2 percent of interest. On the other hand, you can earn much more by investing money? I do not earn interest because I am a Muslim and my religion does not allow me to earn interest. This is why I prefer financial investments rather than earning interest.

This is why its important to invest as this way we can expect some profit otherwise banks are paying a very low interest

This is exactly one of the main reasons why I never even think about earning interest. Six percent or even seven percent of total capital is nothing. A person can earn much more by investing money in assets such as gold, silver, cryptocurrencies, stocks, and other assets.

All private and public sector banks are paying a very low interest on all saving schemes and you can earn more than 6% interest on fixed and recurring deposits that are of long duration.
