What is Investment?

ok, tell me what is investment meaning according to you?

Investing in simple terms means putting your money in small amounts into financial tools in a hope that it would grow. You put money in stocks, bonds, mutual funds or other investment tools for it to grow (by earning certain interest rates). Investment is a good practice to make money work for you, especially, if your goals are clear.
You could invest your money to fund your child’s education or buy your dream car or just secure your future. Investment requires patience and consistent efforts. You need to understand though that your money might see ups and downs.
