Start an Emergency Fund
An emergency fund is a crucial component of financial stability. This savings account is specifically for unexpected expenses like medical bills, car repairs, or sudden job loss.
Financial experts recommend saving at least three to six months’ worth of living expenses.
Start small if needed, and automate your savings to build your emergency fund consistently.
This fund should be easily accessible, such as in a high-yield savings account, and separate from your regular checking account to avoid the temptation to spend it on non-emergencies.
