Setting Up Your Emergency Fund
Life is full of surprises. Unfortunately, some of these surprises can be costly and difficult to manage. Thatβs where your emergency fund comes in. This is a savings account that you set up specifically for unexpected expenses. By having this money saved up, you can avoid taking on high-interest debt or dipping into other savings or investing accounts when something unexpected comes up.
