We all like money, especially since it goes out faster than it comes into our piggy banks. Disasters and Emergencies are never cheap, so while you have some extra from working this summer or selling all your old stuff during yard sales, put some back in an Emergency Fund. Having money saved and designated for those unfortunate events is some of the best preparedness tips we can share with everyone. You don't need a lot of money to start off, just need to plan and stick with the plan to reach your emergency fund goals. Many banks in the area recommend that you have somewhere between three to six months of living expenses saved.
