MARCH 26, 2021

Life suddenly changed for most of us in March 2020 and this past year of the pandemic has reinforced how important an emergency fund is. If you’re able, maybe use some of your stimulous money to put towards building an emergency fund. What helped us through that time was the money we had saved in our emergency account.

According to a recent survey , over half of Americans have less than $1000 in their savings and checking accounts. 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. A Very Tough Year.

The year 2007 held such promise for us when it started, but by the end of the year we were brought to our knees. As self-employed owners of a small business, we have lived through some tough months, but in 2007, it was a tough year. It was a scary time for us. An emergency fund is really a necessity account.

As self-employed owners of a small business, we have lived through some challenging months, but the year 2007 was especially tough for us. Every month, our income must cover our business and household expenses, but many months in 2007, our income barely covered our business expenses, leaving nothing left for our household.
