Family Balance Sheet

MARCH 26, 2021

With little money in their bank accounts, these Americans couldn’t afford these unfortunate expenses without using a credit card or maybe relying on a loan from family and friends. That emergency fund saved our business, our sanity, and our marriage. Your wants and dreams are secondary and should be saved separately.

Surely unemployment, reduced income or a business downturn is considered an emergency, but so is a leaking roof, a broken hot water heater, or a dead car battery. An emergency fund is not a spending account. Create a separate savings account and call it your Emergency Fund. Thanks for supporting Family Balance Sheet.

In 2007, we used about 6 months worth of living expenses and our savings came very close to drying up, so saving one year's worth of living expenses might be more wise for us. Take a deep breath, because with a well-funded emergency savings account, you're covered. Are you having a hard time saving for your emergencies?
