Inflation erodes the purchasing power of cash generally, keeping a baseline amount in a checking or physically is still necessary for immediate liquidity and emergency expenses but a common strategy is the 3-6 Month Rule: Keep 3 to 6 months worth of living expenses in a mix of checking and High yield savings accounts for absolute security, and channel everything else into investments and income-generating assets or multiple revenue streams if possible.

I do cash, I tend to forget that I have it😅

Savings account to save works for me although mine is kinda dry right now🙃

I don't know how to save I've always wanted to save but there's always more to pay than I make so what is there left to save

Have instacash invest money from every direct deposit good then is it takes 5 days to get out so u think twice

For me, a combination of both is better. I rarely use cash, so if I put it in my safe, it’s better.

Still trying to figure it out

Lately it's become easier to save with cash. 90% of what i do is online including bill pay. So the cash i have just stays where it is since I can't spend it online. At least not without making a trip somewhere to deposit it, which I dont. Brokerage account is my next go to for savings.

Cash is easier for me to monitor but a savings helps a lot too

Save every dollar before you know it you'll have saved enough to afford to treat yourself

Neither
