@nokdu23 you can usually use them interchangeably. “Takes less money” would just be used when you might need a large amount of cash for something but you aren’t actually spending it. Maybe you need to have $5,000 to open a bank account, but only $1,000 to open one at a different bank. It would take less money to use the second bank, but it does not cost anything as you are not spending the money.
