In this video, Entrepreneur Network partner Nicole Lapin explains why the surest way to save money is through an automated process, sending a percentage of your earnings (Lapin suggests 5 percent, but it will vary for everyone) into a savings account before you can get your hands on that money and be tempted to spend it. Before starting that automated process, though, you'll need to decide whether you want to use an online bank, an actual bank or a credit union, each of which comes with its own strengths and weaknesses.
