Do you have a savings account?

What's your opinion on that?
I'm interested in answers from a variety of backgrounds.

Yes, I have a savings account. I probably should move at least some of that money over into stocks and such, as it's likely the interest I'm making is less than inflation, but I loath the stock market —legalized gambling controlled by thieves —and the thought of not being able to get at my money in an emergency terrifies me.

@DunningKruger You could try an index fund. They are usually simpler and cheaper to administer and you can usually sell at fairly short notice.

@ninalanyon Yes, I have some money in an index fund, but I haven't been able to pull the trigger on the bulk of it.
