It is necessary to know that , you cannot become a wealthy person earning salary alone. Now there are people who earn good salary, and only depend on their salary to survive, and these set of people hardly become wealthy.
When you are earning good salary, it an opportunity for you to invest your money properly. You can decide to invest in business, Bitcoin or even in the stock market, and years of patience will definitely yield a significant result, and probably make you a wealthy person.

Any money kept in the bank can be affected by inflation, and possibly decline in value, but invested money sustains the value of your currency, grants the investor financial freedom, and boost economy as well.
Wealth can only be created by investment, and not dumping huge amount of money in the bank .

What is your take on this?

Everything you said is true. Relying solely on your salary rarely makes you wealthy because inflation coupled with your lifestyle, usually eats into your income. Even if you have a substantial salary if you don't have assets that can grow over the long term you will lose out to inflation, especially if you keep your money in the bank.

So, the key to creating financial freedom is that once you have sufficient income you must convert some of it into assets that work for you such as investing in Bitcoin or gold or even in a business, depending on your expertise.

Saving money in the bank is safe, but inflation will gradually erode its value, so only keep it there for daily needs. Your mindset must change now don't just work for money, but make money work for you. Investing must be a priority, but investing shouldn't be haphazard it requires knowledge, discipline, and patience. Essentially, diversification and continuous learning are key.

You’re right, Investment is one of the most effective ways to build long-term wealth because it puts your money to work. Whether through businesses, stocks, real estate, or other productive assets, investing gives your money the opportunity to grow over time. On the other hand, leaving a large amount of money in a bank account mainly keeps it safe. While this is important, inflation gradually reduces the purchasing power of idle money, meaning it can buy less in the future than it can today.
Banks still play a vital role. They provide security, easy access to cash, and a safe place to keep funds.

I 100% agree with the core of what you’re saying. My take: salary alone rarely makes you wealthy, A good salary is actually your biggest advantage, Money in the bank loses value. You can’t get wealthy by saving naira/dollars. You get wealthy by owning assets: businesses, bitcoin, stocks, land,etc.  the bank is just the parking lot. Investing is where the car actually moves.
Salary is not bad,it’s the fuel. No investment without income. So the play is: Earn well, save a portion, invest consistently, be patient for years.

I won't say that investing will guarantee you'll become wealthy, but the investments you make can give you a better chance of becoming so in the future. Since the money you save won't grow on its own if you just put it in the bank, it might seem like you have enough savings, but that money isn't productive and will slowly lose its purchasing power over time due to inflation. So the most appropriate thing to do is invest it.

However, in this case, you might need to understand that investing has risks and requires proper knowledge. So, even though it's recommended, you need to do it more carefully and consider your finances.

Actually you have made an explicit point here and I applaud you for that, but however even as investment is very good and profitable than salary job, the salary work is also important because it makes a person to be serious and become dedicated and overall he made money to to start up something that will creat wealth. Like me I have been able to set up a business that will later creat wealth for me in future time from my salary job, although cash in the hand or account  are affected by inflation, but it doesn't mean that we don't need to save money in the bank. Fund in the bank can serve as an emergency fund to scale through challenges during tough times. Any source of income can be utilize and wealth created by such means.

Everything we do has its own responsibility and can never be interchange between each other, same also is investment to the use of a bank account.  The primary obligation of a traditional banking unit  is for saving our money for future use which can never be interchange  from that of investment.  
Investment is an agreement understanding built with a primary objectives of making profits within a specific period of time, while that of
savings are different from that and Is to secure the money and keep it save till it is needed for investment programmes.  Although saving in the bank may be used if the need arises.
