I have written often about the importance of an emergency fund. I set up a strategy years ago to pay for those yearly expenses , so thankfully, there’s money for these bills and we won’t fall behind. We didn’t have enough cash saved to buy a car without a loan and that wasn’t sitting well with me.

It’s not about a higher income; it’s about what you do with your money. We also had bills and other obligations. This means that after we take care of retirement and emergency fund contributions, and after everything else is taken care of, we have enough to do what we like. Should You Buy a House Now?

I love that ice maker and making ice every day is a royal pain. It does however, reportedly save on the electric bill. Good thing we have that emergency fund because this won’t be cheap to fix. How will you feel when you get ready to sell and end up re-doing that kitchen so someone will buy your house?
