An emergency fund is a dedicated cash reserve set aside to cover unexpected expenses or income loss — job loss, medical bills, urgent repairs — without going into debt. Financial planners generally recommend 3 to 6 months of essential living expenses.

  1. 1Add up your essential monthly expenses: rent/mortgage, food, utilities, transport, insurance, minimum debt payments

  3. 3Keep the fund in a high-yield savings account — accessible but separate from daily spending
