What does a bank do with your savings?

You put money in the bank. The bank says "We'll keep it safe!" and writes down your number. But here's the twist: your money doesn't just sit there in a vault with your name on it, gathering dust like a forgotten sandwich.
The moment you leave, the bank lends most of your money to someone else. Someone who needs to buy a house, or start a bakery, or buy a truck for their business. They promise to pay it back — with extra, called interest.
