Michael, let's bring your money to a bank and open a savings account for you! But I can't spend my money if it's in the bank! That's the whole idea! You save your money instead of spending it, and you gain interest! I'm already interested in my money! No, you earn more money via interest! What good does more money do me if it's locked in some bank? Because you won't be able to waste it on silly stuff! I see your point! I could waste your money on silly stuff instead!
