How Much for an Emergency Fund

How Much for an Emergency Fund

An emergency fund is designed to protect you in case you lose your job. As talked about in an earlier post, how much should you have is debatable. Everyone has his or her own opinion on how much that should be. To help you out we have created a spreadsheet to show you how much you will need based upon your spending plan. We built upon the spending plan worksheet and the debt ratios worksheet. If you fill out your spending plan correctly, then how much you will need on a monthly basis automatically updates for you. At that point all you need to do is determine how many months you want to have in your emergency fund. Click on the image below and you will be able to download the spreadsheet. You can always go to www.openoffice.org to download free software to view and edit this document.
