    People who save money can put down larger house deposits, buy cars etc. without loans and the interest there, improve houses, afford holidays, put aside more for retirement.

    The security that being prudent affords you should be the reward, not a few extra quid each month. We should be grateful that in the current climate we are able to save money, I know I am.
