Editor,

The country’s economy is performing well, and according to financial experts, the current environment is favorable for growth. We do have targets, as individuals and a country as a whole. However, to achieve the targets, there are a various things we must do, including, having more Rwandan citizens develop the culture of saving.

We have a number of banks, saving schemes and other financial institutions that can help turn one’s savings into wealth, but for that to happen, people have to be disciplined spenders, and dedicate a portion of the income, however meager, to savings.
