Conserving energy and thus saving money reducing consumption of unnecessary products and packaging and shifting to a clean-energy economy would likely hurt the bottom line of polluting industries but would undoubtedly have positive effects for most of us.

I practice and work hard at my music but I'm not saving lives here.

It's disrespectful to tell the French in the morning that you're going to reduce the debt in the evening that you're not going to make any savings and the next morning after thinking about it that you're going to spend more.

Those carrying a credit card balance should scale back to making the minimum payment each month so they have more money to put into savings.

If you are worried about job security and do not have an adequate emergency fund (ideally eight months' worth of living expenses stashed away in a federally insured bank or credit union) you need to focus more on saving money than paying down the balance on your credit cards.

A system of capitalism presumes sound money not fiat money manipulated by a central bank. Capitalism cherishes voluntary contracts and interest rates that are determined by savings not credit creation by a central bank.

If saving money is wrong I don't want to be right!

When families save they can get through emergencies like a bad harvest or a medical emergency. But it's more than that. They can also plan for the future gradually saving up for a small business or for their children's school tuition.

We have a lot to gain through furthering stem cell research but medical breakthroughs should be fundamentally about saving not destroying human life. Therefore I support stem cell research that does not destroy the embryo.

Helping someone come to a saving knowledge of Christ is the greatest achievement possible.

That is the saving grace of humor if you fail no one is laughing at you.

I could not tread these perilous paths in safety if I did not keep a saving sense of humor.

I am not suggesting that all those missionary organizations working in Haiti should pack up and go home but I am urging them to understand that Haiti does not need clever Americans with newly contrived schemes for saving their country.

I get so frustrated when people tell me it's unrealistic to create an eight-month emergency savings fund or have money saved for a home down payment or pay off their $5 000 credit card balance.

Every day families in the United States face the stark choice between a roof over their heads and food on the table. Buying health insurance owning a home and saving up for college are just too far out of their reach.

We can all agree that no American should lose their life savings or their home because of illness or injury and that the rising cost of health care severely burdens individuals families and businesses.

I remember the first pangs of stress arriving at the end of school. Once I graduated I had to get a full-time job worry about health insurance saving money paying rent - things I'd never thought about before.

We designed both our state employee health plans and the one we created for low-income Hoosiers as Health Savings Accounts and now in the tens of thousands these citizens are proving that they are fully capable of making smart consumerist choices about their own health care.

Good health is not something we can buy. However it can be an extremely valuable savings account.

I've been to enough other countries in the world to know what happens when you have socialized single-payer health care. It works. People don't get sick as much. They don't lose their life savings with a catastrophic illness like cancer or AIDS.

Start living now. Stop saving the good china for that special occasion. Stop withholding your love until that special person materializes. Every day you are alive is a special occasion. Every minute every breath is a gift from God.

I'm thankful for the three ounce Ziploc bag so that I have somewhere to put my savings.
