How much money should you actually keep in your emergency fund? The traditional answer is three to six months of expenses—but the right number depends on your household, income, spending habits, and financial responsibilities.
In this episode of Planning Made Simple, Paul, Kyle, and Cal explain how to calculate your essential monthly expenses, why an emergency fund should be separate from a sinking fund, and how to begin saving when a large goal feels overwhelming. They also discuss how living below your means can reduce financial stress and keep an unexpected expense from turning into expensive debt.
You’ll learn:
What should—and shouldn’t—count as an emergency
The difference between an emergency fund and a sinking fund
How to calculate your personal savings target
Why starting with one month of expenses can provide breathing room
How dividing your income into percentages can make saving easier
Why “hope is not an emergency fund”
