Lets say I can buy a Happy Meal right now for $4.00 or I can save that $4.00 and invest it. Lets say I decide to invest and hold that investment for 10 years. In 10 years my investment is worth $12.00 and a Happy Meal now costs $6.00. I can now buy 2 Happy Meals simply because I invested my money rather than spending it.

To invest is when you spend money on something in the hope of getting money back from it. I could invest in a laptop so I can sell stuff online.
