Most people have zero emergency savings… and one bad month can destroy them. That’s why so many people go into debt the moment something unexpected happens. Here’s the simple rule for an emergency fund: Start with $1,000. This covers small emergencies like car repairs or medical bills. Then build it to 3 to 6 months of expenses. That means if you spend $3,000 a month, you need $9,000 to $18,000 saved. Keep this money in a separate high-yield savings account. Not in your regular checking account where you’ll spend it. An emergency fund doesn’t make you rich… But it stops you from going broke. Follow for more simple money tips that actually protect you.
