Family Balance Sheet

OCTOBER 18, 2019

We ran the numbers of the purchase and they looked great on paper, but paper doesn’t account for a new server, a roof leak, unexpected medical bills, and other calamities. I could hardly focus on anything else on that Friday and I shed some tears. 1 – Save a starter Home Emergency Fund.

Then on Friday, I ended up spending over $500 at the vet with a sick cat. Unfortunately, my credit card bill has now expanded to match the frustration I was feeling last week as I cleaned up the floor multiple times. I can pay all of my bills and then some. I have four jobs. I'm healthy. Time to stop whining.

With just one emergency such as a car breaking down or, in the US, a medical bill, many could be in a very precarious position. I put $25 per paycheck into my savings account every second Friday. Combined with my extra income, this $600/year (give or take $25) really helped boost my savings and therefor my emergency fund.
