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.

In September 2019, my husband and I accomplished our biggest financial goal in our almost 20 years of marriage.

We increased our income.
