It helps to save as a student mainly because it fosters good habits of handling money from a youthful age. They help one to deal with the dress situation regarding emergencies such as fixing a car or paying a hospital bill without requiring to borrow. You don't even want banks running after you ti get their money, they will frustrate you. Saving also is useful in the sense that it helps you to establish effective ways in controlling your expenditure, which in turn helps in relieving you of the stress that may arise as a result of fear on the issue of money.
