An Emergency Fund is a financial safety net designed to cover unexpected expenses such as medical bills, car repairs, or job loss. It prevents people from relying on credit cards or loans during crises, protecting long-term financial health. Experts recommend saving at least three to six months’ worth of living expenses in an easily accessible account. Building an emergency fund requires consistency, budgeting, and discipline. Even small, regular contributions can grow into a reliable cushion over time. Having this fund in place brings peace of mind and ensures stability when life takes an unexpected turn.
