This is the continuation of the previous blog post topic, which is on Savings. Recently I was helping to sign-up my clients for Islamic Savings Account which does not requires initial deposit as the company is having a promotion which lasted till today, 30 June 2013. I have some clients who gave a common excuse like "Oh! I have alot of bank accounts" or "I would rather stick to bank 'A' which has Islamic Bank facility but will consider changing it later" or "I am not interested".

As a graduate from Diploma in Fund Management and Administration who learns about investment, I was constantly reminded "Do not put all your eggs in one basket". This phrase applies not only to investment, but also in savings. There is actually no harm in having alot of savings account. Frankly speaking, I myself have various savings account: 2 Conventional and 2 Islamic savings account. Secret to saving your money is to spread it out. Like the following diagram [Diagram 1.1] (Continuation on Aminah's story in the previous blog post [Diagram 1]):


Well, now you see, no excuse to be made on, to open another Islamic savings account. Show your support for strengthening the Islamic economy. If we Muslims do not support the Islamic economy, who else will do it for us? NO ONE. Let's do our part to come together and support the Islamic economy, for ourselves and for our future generations. Insyaallah. Amin.
