Savings are mostly done by children or immature ones. Those that have no business strategy believe saving is the best way to keep their money or materials for any period of time as decided by the owner but investment are done by adults with many business strategy because they believe instead of keeping the unused money without making income, they can invest such money or material in any form of business such as such as share buying, crypto etc. and make huge money on it before the money or material will be needed.
Savings can be done for a long period of time as it is always sure that the money is safe. If the money is saved in banks, interest tends to add up gradually before the withdrawal.
