Emergency Fund & Savings Strategy

An emergency fund is the single financial move that turns a flat tire, a layoff, or an ER visit from a disaster into an inconvenience. This course shows you exactly how much to save based on your own bare-bones expenses, where to keep it so it earns 4 to 5 percent without locking it away, and how to automate transfers so the fund fills itself on a steady or irregular paycheck. You finish with a target number, a chosen high-yield account, an automation schedule, and clear rules for when the money is allowed to leave.
