A lot of life happened over 7 years and our plan changed slightly, but our goal remains to achieve complete freedom from debt. Our 2019 Financial Goal. We can now move on to other financial goals. Our Debt Freedom Plan (October 2019 Update): Exact numbers have been omitted at this time. 1st Update in June 2014.

We also didn’t feel comfortable with Dave’s suggestion of a $1000 starter emergency fund, which is his step #1. The point of the starter emergency fund is to get you through until you pay off your non-mortgage debts, at which point, you build a more extensive fund. Number 4 was knocked out in 2019.

Our emergency fund. I am totally paraphrasing the year, but had it not been for the money in our emergency savings, we would most likely have used credit cards to survive. We reduced our spending where we could, but the money to pay any shortfall each month came from our emergency fund. It kept me up at night.

I have written often about the importance of an emergency fund. After paying off our last non-mortgage debt in September 2019, we updated our Debt Freedom Plan. We have an emergency fund, but after this crisis, we will likely need to replenish it and increase the amount that we keep. Cash is King.
