Why An Emergency Fund - Follow Up

Found a website that talks about the importance of saving for an emergencies.

"This is a sound choice. Having an emergency savings fund may be the most important difference between those who manage to stay afloat and those who are sinking financially"
They recommend an amount between $500 to $1,000 as a savings goal to start with. The website also offers a program uou can enroll in to help you meet your savings goal. The website also provides information on other savings goals.

"Are you ready to take charge of your financial future? America Saves is here to help.
