# well
you give the money to a bank.
You think they are keeping it safe, but in reality they are investing it on the stockmarket. This makes them money. They then give some of this back as interest. They also lend money to other people, charge interest on that, and earn money that way.

# When I got my first account
I tried to use as many different coins as possible to make it more 'interesting'... I was most upset when my mum explained what 'interest' meant and that small change had to be bagged according to denomination...
